Mk1 Rear Shock Absorbers

Postby Pyramidls » Mon May 11, 2015 3:37 pm

Hello

I've recently acquired a 1972 Mk1 Transit CI Motorhome. The model is BDX and the build date was 72E. I'm just replacing a few bits and was wondering if anyone could confirm the correct rear shock absorbers.
Ive been looking at Monroe and think that it could be the V2018 or V2020.

Thanks

There seems to be two variants listed 72E (1965-1978) BUS and 74E (1971-1978) platform/chassis.

What does the 72E and 74E mean? Which one would a 1972 mk1 swb ci motorhome come under?

The vast majority of coachbuilt motorhomes are based on a chassis cab (so get the one's for the truck) :wink:
