Title: Shock Absorbers
Post by: craiga on June 25, 2002, 05:32:59 AM

Does anybody have any contacts that can supply Hydraulic Shock Absorbers for my FC?

Hydraulic units are available for the rear but I can only find Gas units for the front. I would prefer the softer hydraulic units if possible.

Thanks,

Craig.

Hi Graig,

When I got new shocks for my old girl I could only get hydraulic shocks from Mr Pedder. They are a Black shock and are classed as heavy duty. I have found them to be really good and they were not expensive. I had the same trouble as you in trying to find a comfortable shock.

PS when you took a picture of my old girl on sunday, did you use a digital camera ??? If so could you email a copy to me as I dont have a digital camera and would like to save it as picture for my pc, Thanks

Hi Chris,

It was good to finally meet you yesterday. Thanks for the info on the shocks, I'll drop in to Pedders tomorrow and have a chat to them.

The photos were only taken on a throw away camera but I'll scan them and post them for download.

Should have them developed in the next few days.

Cheers,

Craig.
