Be aware there are different hole centres I suppose the MGB ones have the same centres as the model A frame . I have several sets of these but have not fitted any yet . I do have some where the mounting hols are further apart which would require frame drilling . These came off English Ford Consul/Zepther/Zodiac so dont buy the wrong ones off Ebay . I seem to think there is a fitting issue for the rears I have seen a 30 fordor where the body wheel arch had to be modifide for the shock to be mounted flush to the frame .
