As with any community, rules and guidelines are important to keep the community running smoothly. Please keep in mind our rules whenever posting to keep our community pleasant for members and guests alike.

Members who continually breach these rules will find themselves limited or removed from the community, regardless of the other contributions they have made.

No personal attacks. If you break this rule you risk being banned from a-body.org. Final judgement of whether or not something is a personal attack will be left to a-body.org staff.

While respectful discussions about race, religion, and sexual orientation are acceptable, insulting someone (or their project) based off those topics or using terms associated with those as an insult is viewed as a personal attack and enforced as such.

No advocating violence or illegal activities.

No intentionally posting something to offend or get under someone’s skin, especially if you tag them or it's quoted. (trolling)

No F bombs in memes or pictures. If use of profanity gets carried away in a post, you may be contacted by a moderator.

Questioning a Moderation Decision Publicly: If you have a disagreement with a moderator (If your post gets deleted, if you get a warning, etc.), DO NOT post your complaint publicly on the forums. If you would like to raise a complaint regarding a moderator's actions, start a private conversation or email the moderator. The contents of this PM do not need to be shared in the open forum. If the moderator's response is unsatisfactory, please contact the admin.

Basically, use a little common sense before typing out a reply that you know might get under someone's skin. Some topics bring out the worst in some of us- if you don't think you can discuss any given topic in a civilized manner, please bow out of the discussion. If you choose to ignore the above guidelines, your post may be deleted, locked and/or forwarded to the Admin section for further review.

Anyone wishing to publicly solicit funds for ANY cause needs to get a hold of the admin  and get the official okay before proceeding.  If you are selling vehicles or parts, no external links, please use our Classified-section.

We take all complaints seriously, but posting your dissatisfaction publicly may result in a rule violation.

Well, since those of us who own these know those rear air struts become leaky when they get old and they are not really rebuildable or at least that's what they say, and since new ones 22064113, 22064114 are NLA from GM and I've had persistent searches in CL, Facebook Marketplace & fleabay, with nothing in years,  I was gonna try to find some similar ones and modify them.

I bought some 1991 LeSabre air struts. They appear to be the same extended and collapsed length and have the right fitting, and the upper mount is the same, the only thing missing is the lower mount with the toe tie-rod attachment wing on it. I'm gonna see if there's some way I can cut that off the old ones and weld it on to the new one, or make a bracket to get it bolted on. I dunno, welding on a sealed hydraulic cylinder is probably not a good idea. Small tacks may be possible. I'm not sure yet.

But I'll update when I get around to it!

 
   
   

Welcome to A-Body.org! This site is dedicated to those of us crazy people who are enthusiasts of or drive and maintain GM FWD/AWD A-body vehicles.

We used to have A-Body.net, but it suddenly disappeared.
Since I've not seen anything I went ahead and created this forum in hopes we can move our activities, as limited as they were, to here.

 I've no idea who owned the old a-body.net or controlled it, it would be nice if anyone knows that I can try to contact them and see if I can get the forum database and attempt to merge it in here.
Also, the a-body.net domain seems to have been taken over by some unknown entity and currently directs to some betting website, so, that is also not available.

But for now, enjoy!
