Source For 1969 Shock Absorbers

[TED DIMON]

The early Avanti II's got a lot of their parts out of the original Studebaker parts bins.  Does my 1969 use 1964 front shock absorbers or was something different used because of the Chevy 350 engine?

Can anyone recommend a vendor for the correct shocks?

My 70 RQA came with Koni shocks all around.  You could adjust them from a solid strut to a cushy mattress like sensation.   The 70 chassis was the same as the Studebaker Avanti, so you can use anything they installed...  Look to Studebaker International

Avanti Parts Biz is who I use for all suspension parts

Got me a nice set (4) gas-charged correct shocks on eBay for a lot less than the Stude vendors. Just do a little shopping. They are available almost everywhere.
