[QUOTE="hadronuk, post: 72636, member: 1866"] The basic problem you are up against is that the B series was not designed for a hydraulic damper so the available space is severely limited. Hence the fairly major re-working for the D series that created space for a much longer damper. I have just had a look through the Armstrong catalogue, and I don't see anything suitable, they are all too long. I can't see anywhere if the listed minimum length is including or excluding the bump stop. Anyone know? In the intro, very interestingly it says "Our SB units are made in two in sizes. SB 3 and SB 4 with nominal stroke lengths of 3" and 4" respectively. (Figs. 2 and 3). For most machines these allow too much movement and stroke restrictors are employed to reduce it in the particular way needed for the individual models. The extended and compressed lengths in the list show this." So there may be scope for the Armstrong replica suppliers to assist. [/QUOTE]
