Rear shocks

Anybody got some rear shocks knocking about? Ideally looking for some spax ones to keep front and rear matching but not honestly bothered....also not too worried about lengths etc though will be used on a de-dion axle....Thanks in advance...Oli.

Hi following on from the main thread regarding your dedion.

It really is worth getting a pair of properly valved and matched dampers for the application. It is what makes the biggest difference in handeling and ride quality with a dedion / live axle setup.

I recently bought some new rear shocks - I got them direct from Avo - their price was slightly cheaper (one or two Pounds) than the usual distributors, and they adjusted the valve setting at no extra cost. All they wanted to know was the type of car (ie.e. the weight) and the spring poundage.

Very pleased with their service, and the car's a lot nicer for their efforts.
