Rear Hassler Shock Parts Question

Post by DontKnowMuch » Fri Sep 27, 2019 3:59 pm

I need some help identifying parts for twin Hassler shocks for a coupe/sedan. In the Parts Catalog posted by Jay - Northern California on March 15, 2014, (http://www.mtfca.com/discus/messages/41 ... 1394983665), page 20 has parts listed as "No 4 - Rear Lever Perch for the Twin Type Hasslers for the Sedan/Coupe". This is the part that bolts to the rear axle backing plate on each end of the axle. Page 18 and 19 show a part "No 4 - Rear Lever Perch for the Single Type Hasslers for the Touring Car/Roadster."

Are these the same part used for both the Single and Twin Hasslers?

Thanks for the help.

Agree they are the same. Note: they will not work on '26-'27 large drum rear axle - not enough clearance for the drum
