Hi,
I've seen replacement jampot style shocks at £125 a pair.
Listing states 57 onward was there a chance to the fitting in 57?

Yes the change was from Jampots to Girlings with clevis bottom fitting as in the photo. Jampots had clevis fitting top and bottom.

Re: Emgo shock absorbers
Sort of linked - I put a pair of these on my M31 after just one of the original springs curiously went very soft. Theyre not a bad unit but I would prefer something a bit stronger as the bike is always used 2-up and we are both bigger than folk used to be 60 years ago Did AMC ever produce sidecar rated springs or should I be looking towards having a pair made - or even supplementing the current springs with a half inch acetal spacer? I did that on the rear monoshock of our BMW R100RT winter bike and it improved matters (the summer use BMW got a new Hagon, but difficult to justify buying a pair at the price )

Re: Emgo shock absorbers
Why, what are you wanting to fit them on? Edit: I was replying to Ken about the Emgo Shock absorbers. May have some sidecar springs though.

Re: Emgo shock absorbers
Assuming the spring length is the same as originals you can use the following to identify what you might need/was available/original specification:
