Need CL72 cushion dampener shock please!

I got both taken apart for painting, one doesn't seem to have any dampenening. I need the shock body. Anyone have a spare?

Mips, No compression dampening or rebound dampening? Ask around, but they had little to no compression dampening. Correct me if I'm wrong. You looking for a eye to clevis shock body ? Scram64

I got it apart, it had run out of fluid. I can't seem to find the seal it takes anywhere online. Has been referenced as a 27.2 x 9 x 10. Looking for half an hour with no luck

Mips, PM G-man direct. He might have a source for that seal.

Finally found it!! Didn't realize the ones people are using as replacement are slighly smaller 26.4 instead of 27.2.

Not sure that the 26.4 seal will work in there but interesting to find out. I made up a seal holder and used a smaller seal.

Shoot! I was hoping it would be a direct fit.

Anyone have any CL72 shocks that hold oil still? I have the other parts, just need the lower dampner part.
