I had ordered the shock oil and links from Ahead 4 Healey's and got on with making the gaskets and putting them back together. I started with the one original gasket that I managed to get off the shock without damage and some gasket paper.
A little bit of tracing.
And lots of cutting and faffing produced the finished article.
Then I cleaned off the shocks and filled them with oil being careful to expel all the trapped air which I hope I did. It took quite a lot of leavening the arm up and down but I got there in the end.
Then having fitted the top back on and carefully tightening the screws I was able to paint with my new POR15 in matt black. Very pleased with the finished shocks.
