Good morning team. Was wondering if anyone can help me out with rear shock dampers for my 55 Century. Either rebuilt or seconds I live in New Zealand
 
Links are available from various suppliers. If functioning well and not leaking too badly just keep filling or use my method to seal the leaks: THIS
 
Hi Ron, have you had any luck finding any rear shocks for the 55?, I think I may have some seconds from a 55 Special.
 
No i haven't I see your a local fella :) They are a single lever shock

Hi Ron, Have found what you are looking for, I believe they will both need a refresh, one arm moves with no resistance and the other one requires a lot of effort and have moved it a little bit.
These came off a 55 special that i dismantled many years ago. cheers Ralph 0211393604
