Protech or Gaz shocks?

Which is best? Need a pair for the rear, sometime soon! The GAZ fitted are on the short side.

Hi.

Cheers for the recommendations guys.

I do them with the correct valving ratios for the application.
This is done by changing the shim stack and machining certain internal parts.

But be careful as there are lots of people who are now saying they re-valve the dampers but in actual fact are just removing the adjuster knob and replacing it in a lower setting. IE the ratio of compression and rebound remains the same as standard as Protech supply and doesn't change the actual valving ratio its just softer.

Prices from me: Single adjustable bonded bushed. £98. Ea
single adjustable rose jointed. £103. Ea
double adjustable rose jointed. £200. Ea
All prices are total. only extra is P&P from £12 - £25 depending on insurance cover.

Cheers Matt

I think you have your answer But another vote for Procomp supplied Protechs. Matt stripped, rebuilt and set up the Protechs on all the Arion racecars for us this season - the difference is night and day and a major contributing factor to the cars domination of the RGB championship this year - wouldn't go anywhere else
