I can't seem to find Denton's site, I'm starting to wonder.

I know that Denton's damper was a rebadge of another company, which I used to know when I repaired mine, but threw away the paperwork long ago.

I used www.mcmaster.com to replace the ball joints in mine (though they weren't quite the same quality), and you may be able to find seals there as well, but you're going to need to have some way to measure the parts.

If you want an easy way out, though, it looks like Alba sells a damper that's similar to the Denton for about the same price.

yea i am beginning to think the same thing. i may have to break down and buy a new one. you have to wonder if its worth buying a rebuildabe one if you can't find parts to rebuild with.

Well, Denton was always a kind of small retail shop, whereas Alba has a much more established presence and is growing, so I would imagine that they'd stand behind their model a bit longer.

Really, though, you're supposed to rebuild them more often than whenever the ball joints get rounded out, which is what I did, but that's beside the point......

i got an email from dana creech racing today that said denton was out of business and they can't get part anymore. i spoke to c&d racing today and he said $35 a piece for heim joints plus the rebuild kit $15 dollars. sounds like anybody that has a denton stabilizer is out of luck. time to buy a new one.
