Needing a shock absorber for coil over suspension

[Little Lucy]

Dear fellow vintage caravaners

We recently purchased a 1962 Sunliner.

My husband wants to replace the shock absorber for the suspension - but our mechanic is at a loss as to where we might get one to fit, and is saying it will need to be purpose made costing hundreds of dollars. Yikes.

Are these a rare species? Do we need to make it from scratch?

If not, can anyone tell us where we might get one?

Thanks so much

Hi,

Somewhere in our old posts there is a breakdown of the parts in a Sunliner suspension that I posted
This is a link to my post, which is on page 20 of Technical , under detailed sunliner suspension.
If you highlight & click on the link, it should take you to my post.

Thank you so much JBJ for your speedy response! I've passed those specs to my husband and hopefully the mechanic can source these parts - and we can FINALLY get out on the road.
