moose Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Just got me chuffin rear floor sorted, now spotted this !Does it never end . . . . . Baloo Thats not really a problem if the shock is still ok... just remove the rusty bits.. i run my pro comps with out the dust boots as you dont get mud/crud/water build up. if the shock is dead and your on a budget get the Armstrong oil shocks @ 10 quid a go. I have run them on mine and at that price are almost disposable remember to replace in pairs tho... when i got my truck it had a mix of shocks (gas and oil) and made the ride interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FridgeFreezer Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 If it's leaking it will be an MOT fail I think, in the meantime live with it. The stock shocks from paddocks are pennies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 looks like the temporary replacement shock i fitted two years ago to me. well i snapped the stud off the end of the previous one 4 hours before a trip to wales so it was off to a mates shed to dig around. shock is still on the car unless its fallen off & i aint noticed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
