Many years ago there was a series of articles in the Model A News. It was very detailed and accurate. I used to rebuild shocks but quit due to poor core availability. 10-12 years ago, about 1 in 10 had a fighting chance to rebuild; I’d bet 1 in 50! That’s why Stipe reproduced them and gets high bucks.
I’m the next few days I’ll try to find those and scan in.
When I get them I’ll either post or link to the articles

BTW…the first challenge is getting them apart! It’ll take some heat most likely
