WTB new shocks, any help/offers would be appreciated.

Post by Ashgan »

Hey guys,

My rear left strut is kaput and gives me massive bump steer to the right whenever i go over a bump or divet with that side. I want new struts/shocks all round but i've heard they're a bitch to come by. Any help would be appreciated, or offers if anyone can get their hands on some.

I have a 1982 JA Starion.

Cheers,
-Ash

Better than gabbys from what ive heard are Mookees from the states.
He sells the rears on here for $119USD

You can still get front KYB inserts as far as i know if you need them too.
Obviously shipping will be a bit on the rears but well worth it from feedback ive read as these are alot better than gabbys.

The widebody and narrowbody rears are the same so you can use the 101propose rears, and for fronts, you can still get KYB inserts for them, if i remember correctly the part number is 365029, will double check that on mine in the garage 2moro. Expect to pay $80NZD each for those.
If you need anymore help flick me a PM
