Hi All

I am looking into changing the shock struts on the undercarriage of my Acrosport 1 from the older bungee type shocks to "coil spring" shocks.

My Acrosport 1 was originally built in 1976 and I have the original early 1970's Acrosport 1 plans but they do not include the build details for the newer "coil spring" shock struts.

I know it is a big ask but would anybody on the forum be willing to message me with a copy/photo of the "coil spring" shock strut design including the dimensions and materials required to construct them.

Your assistance would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

CX
