Has anyone gotten the tube shock conversion from moss motors? What's it like and what are the pros and cons about it?

Loaded question my friend. You’re going to have quite a few folks telling you all kinds of negative things about it. Bla! blaa! Blaaa!....

I did the tube shock upgrade as one of my old lever shocks was toast and for a little more than the price of a rebuild unit I just did the tube shock conversion. Now should I ever need to replace a rear shock I can go down to the local auto parts store.

My only advice is to watch you spacing. On my 78B I had a little rubbing but I fixed that with an extra washer. Runs great and works well with the other suspension upgrades I’ve done. Personally it’s a simple upgrade and I really like it.

Excuse me while I put on my flame resistant suit and wait for the replies to your question and my comments.
