SHOCK COVER SET CHROME - 4.5 INCHES LONG
Chrome shock cover set, 4.5 inches long, for the rear suspension units.
This is a shock cover set for the rear suspension units, finished in chrome and measuring 4.5 inches long. Shock covers are the sliding sleeves that fit over the top of the rear shock body, tidying up the look of the unit and helping keep grit off the shaft as the suspension moves. The catalog shows this part sitting under swinging fork and suspension unit figures, so it's part of the rear shock assembly rather than anything at the front end.

You'll find this one cataloged under a couple of different numbers over the years. It shows up as 9054/47 and also as 17-05595, with the later factory number 42-4292 replacing it down the line. If you're working from an older parts book and it lists one of those earlier numbers, this is the same physical piece.
Catalog appearances for this cover set run from the mid to late 1960s. As always, cross-check your own frame and shock setup before ordering, since suspension units changed over the years and covers were sized to match.
