The front shock absorbers on my 1967 Bedford CA are past their best. They are a telescopic unit, and not listed in any current or even some of the 80's aftermarket catalogues that I have

I doubt I'll get some new unless I stumble over some NOS, unless the same shock absorber was fitted to something more common, my ask is:

Any aftermarket manufactures part number would be great.
Any size spec would be good too
Anything else that they were fitted to would be a bonus.

Thanks in advance

Dave. I have been browsing and discovered Armstrong front shock absorbers (to fit CA Bedford 1952 - 69) are part number 620520. They also fitted 1953 to 1966 Hillman Minx and Singer Gazelle/ Commer Cob series 2 (1960 - 61)...so perhaps there is a club who could help?

Also Borgward Isabella estate (1954 -61).

Someone suggested try the Dormobile Club?

Thanks Ray, that opens up the search
