Broken Lower Rear Shock Mount

Post by opus10583 »

Hi,

The Hudson river crossings have taken their toll, beyond the hoodlum Chris Christy's GWB extortion: My driver's side lower rear shock mount is busted, fully.

Is this reparable, or should I be looking for a good used rear axle?

Thanks,
Mark

Are you a Montauk denizen or summer-timer?

I'm thinking North Fork in July for a week, with my Spider, a fishing trip off the end always a thought.

Frank had my car ready early Saturday afternoon! I was unprepared and not nearby... Pick it up today!

Full time since a few years ago.

I've seen a couple nice Spiders out this way, missed the east end Italian car show here, though, as I was away that weekend.

North Fork is nice, but all that wine tasting at the roadside wineries makes driving...........interesting ;-)

Change of plans, might be picking up a new car end of next week.
