My Rotary Club has a father Christmas sleigh based on a very old caravan chassis - maybe 40 years old??

 

We need to obtain replacement shock absorbers for this,  but cannot read any detail description etc on the old units.

 

Anyone know of possible sources for old spares such as this??

    On reflection, I wonder if these are car shockers that someone has fitted to the old caravan chassis🤷🏻‍♂️

    Take one into a motor factors and they should be able to identify it for you  - they look like  Land Rover 88/109 shocks
