This pair of 17.5-inch VintCo air shocks is made as an exact duplicate of the original air shocks used in the late 1970s. Designed for vintage dirt bike applications, they use a two-chamber high- and low-pressure arrangement to allow suspension set-up adjustment. The shocks are supplied assembled and ready for installation; air or nitrogen must be added before use to set sag correctly. Various bushings are included, and some modifications may be required depending on the specific motorcycle. The package includes the shocks, spacers and a VintCo owner’s manual, and the units are assembled in the USA with all-new components.
