69 Z Front shock sticker location
« on: November 15, 2008, 01:43:00 AM »
I did not take a picture of the sticker location on my original shocks before I restored them and now I dont remember which end of the shock the sticker suppose to go. Can anyone help me out with this?

Thanks,

I have a set of NOS Delco shocks in the box that look like Camaro rears and have a 1966 date part no. on the shock is 3178182

they have a "BS" decal that is 1.5 inch from top edge of shock to top of decal.

I can't find the application for these. Do you have a number for the Camaro rears?

thanks Tom.
it says 1962-1967 ChevyII on the box of the shocks but I was wondering if they were the same for 67 Camaro as they look the same but the lenth can be different

I can 2nd JoeC input.  The NOS shocks I found had the front decals at 7/8" from the top edge on one, and about 1" on the other.  The rear shocks decals were located at 2-3/4" on one and at 2-7/8" from the top on the other.  All the decals were fairly straight except for one decal on a front shock that was applied at a slight angle, so they were not applied perfectly.
