Part no:
SUF101R
Product name:
Shock Absorber - front - Recon (exchange)
Additional information:
Description:

Reconditioned exchange front lever arm shock absorber for Austin Healey BN1 to BJ8 models. This unit retains the original flat-top body style fitted to Healey production models, making it suitable where original wheel arch clearance is to be preserved.

Supplied on an exchange basis and rebuilt for continued use with standard front suspension systems.

Key Benefits

  • Original flat-top body configuration
  • No wheel arch modification normally required
  • Suitable for Austin Healey BN1 to BJ8
  • Retains factory-style installation profile
  • Exchange rebuild service
  • Compatible with standard suspension geometry

Fitment

Fits Austin Healey BN1, BN2, BN4, BN6, BN7, BT7 and BJ8 models fitted with standard front lever arm suspension.

This version retains the earlier flat-top body shape originally used throughout Big Healey production and is commonly preferred where original wheel arch clearance is limited.

What’s Included

  • One reconditioned exchange front shock absorber

Exchange unit return is required. Mounting hardware is not included unless otherwise stated.

Technical Details

  • Lever arm hydraulic shock absorber
  • Original flat-top body profile
  • Reconditioned exchange unit
  • Standard damping specification

Installation

Existing mounting hardware and suspension components should be inspected before installation. Suspension bushes, trunnions and steering geometry can affect damping performance and ride quality.

Exchange procedures should be confirmed before returning the original unit.

Why Choose This Part

The flat-top body design maintains original installation clearance and appearance while retaining standard Austin Healey front suspension operation.

This option is particularly useful where owners wish to avoid wheel arch modification associated with some later turret-top replacement units.
