I need to replace the front shocks on a 40 Super Six can someone share a part number so that I can buy them locally?

    I just changed the shocks on my 40 super six. I ordered them from Wildrick. I know that is not local, but if you go on the Wildrick site you will find the shocks.

    I don't have different shocks for 40-47, but I think they are the same.  They actually used left-over front ends on the early 48s I'm told.  Buy the Amazon ones and If they don't fit send them back and let us know.
