Hi gang,
Rear shock on an 1982 SJ - see picture below (not mine, but you get the idea)
Would anyone know what metals the rear shock is comprised of?
I know the spring itself is chromed and mine is in great shape. However, the top piece and the bottom pieces are quite worn. The top piece and the preload adjuster piece for example are very light and almost feel like they could be aluminum. Before I start sanding the material to try and shine it, I kind of want to be sure so I don't ruin them.
