im in need of a pair of uprated shocks with top mounts. i have the correct springs for me, just don't think standard shocks are up for the job anymore lol

must be decent shocks and in fully working condition. either in the north-west or able to post.

i think i have enough confidence in buying parts from well known members off here tbh mate. i know what you're saying but i know the difference in a fcuked shock and a working one.

cheers for the advice anyway.

i was wanting something a little better than gmax (no offence, i have had them in the past and rated their value), however if nothing else comes up il let you know.

wanting something within the next week ideally.

and ps morton, is there any reason you told me to buy brand new but a few days ago you have asked for some second hand shocks Lol?

i wasnt having a go, just thought it was a little odd you advising something and then doing the opposite. you're not the only one on a budget, id always prefer to save money where i can do. i might actually have a look at brand new billies actually though :)
