Wanted tube shock set-up/brackets for MGB

Lindsay Porter says tube shocks on the rear of an MGB is "...the greatest improvement (that) can be made to the suspension...." Not everyone agrees, but i'd like to try it. There's a nice tech article on MGE that documents such a switch, but I'm not comfortable with using a single bolt through the frame to support the upper shock eye. So, if you've had this conversion, then switched back to levers, I'd be interested in buying the hardware you removed, especially the upper brackets. (BTW, I prefer the levers, but mine are leaking badly and I can't afford to replace them at this time.)
 
Greetings Tucsonsean,
I have a SPAX model CK12 conversion kit for the front, 62-81 MGB available on my parts shelf.
Pics & specs are available on the manufacturers site, make an offer if you are interested.

Best Regards,
BR
