Default RE: wla friction damper

Hey, Trog,

I'm sorry I 'm so late in responding. I had a mixup on my login for the forum.

Anyway, if you haven't already found what you are looking for, check this out:

http://www.nosparts.com/cgi-bin/byte...ownload/wl.pdf

That is the NOS Parts online catalogue. On page 41, it shows the parts for the Ride Control, in the correct order. I hope this answers your question. BTW-- you can just save that whole .pdf catalogue and have it for ready reference. If you need more info, I'll see what I can find in my stuff.

Good luck,

Jim
