Rear shock rebuild for a 1970 RT1 was created by steve@sancobuilders.net

Hello everyone, sorry if this topic has come up before, but I was breaking down my rear shocks to do some light cleanup and I noticed that one of the shocks was leaking oil around the shaft. Not going for a full show restoration, but want to save the original shocks if possible and have them look nice. Is there someone here that rebuilds these? Can they be rebuilt? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Steve

Short answer--no, sorry.

Is there an alternative that looks like the original shocks, or close, that can be bought today?
