Title: Rear struts Post by: Iain on April 09, 2011, 04:19:41 PM Help!!
Spent this morning removing the rear struts with the plan of replacing the shocks with the nice new Excel G gas inserts recently bought only to discover that, unlike the front, the rear units are the sealed type. Doh!!! That's what you get for making assumptions So, with the MOT does anyone have a pair of rear strut bodies lying about (the type that take inserts) that they'd like some cash for Title: Re: Rear struts Post by: Iain on April 09, 2011, 04:23:09 PM Woops, hit return before I finished typing ;D, the full message should have read:

These can be converted to take inserts. Someone on here will buy the old sealed units that a cert!
