Part Number Query - Who knows their french onions?

[Ollie82.]

Part number geeks need only apply to answer this one.

Two front shock absorbers, both Renault (KYB) and both supposedly for a PH1 172 but both with differing part numbers, albeit one digit out.

82 00 681 105
82 00 681 106

Which is the correct one for the car?

 

[Rob]

Are they sided?

 

[Ollie82.]

No. Same part number for NS or OS.

 

[Budgie]

Nope, front shocks aren't sided.

 

[Emma.]

I could take the credit and say its the one that ends in 5 for a ph1, 6 for ph2. I won't though lol

Emma, I think you are bang on the money.....as I had suspected. My brothers Ph1 was fitted with Ph2 front shocks.

Shocking. Excuse pun.

My brothers Ph1 was fitted with Ph2 front shocks.

Shocking. Excuse pun.

lol ... were they fitted by that well known Dorset based Renault tuning company?

Or just supplied?

The mystery of the epic PH1 positive camber = wrong front dampers.

 

[Emma.]

I had rear shocks supplied by that same company :S

 

[Ollie82.]

No Dave they were supplied AND fitted. I KNEW something was up. Well......it was pretty obvious. At least 2 degrees POSITIVE camber kinda gives the game away.
That and the fact it was knackering front tyres....

 

[Ollie82.]

I had rear shocks supplied by that same company :S

May be worth checking that you don't have a pair of PH1 rear dampers on it!

 

[Emma.]

I've got standard rear dampers instead of cup dampers.

No idea if there's any difference, but there is according to wests part list

 

[TimR26]

What a f**k up! I bet they added the usual Ktec Tax on to the parts price as well.

You've read it wrong, Ph2 and Ph2 Cup rear shocks have the same part number.

Actually reatards. They didn't think something was wrong when they aligned the car after fitment?

Name and shame please.

Aligned the car? Don't be daft....that blatantly never happened either.
It ruined a nearly new pair of Toyos because of it as well.
It now has a correct pair of front shocks on it and now needs two new tyres on so I can get the geo sorted.

Twas a Ktec special Gal.

 

[Emma.]

Ahhh so I did. Thanks Tim

 

[Sir_Dave]

No Dave they were supplied AND fitted.

And people trust them to build engines, then map them.

lol.

 

[Gally]

Flol! Doesn't surprise me.

Love hearing about people fitting suspension with zero alignment.... slow clap!

 

[Tony Hunter]

Does this company have 'Racing' in the name by any chance?

 

[Jonny1*2]

^^^subtle

Ok techically mr racing driver, you could be correct.

 

[Ollie82.]

Ktec has the word 'Racing' in their name?? I honestly missed that.....possibly because it really shouldn't be there.

 

[Tony Hunter]

I see what you did there.

 

[Ollie82.]

Ok techically mr racing driver, you could be correct.

OK, thats very clever.

 

[Stryker]

So much better now with the rght shocks still needs a geo though, toe is visually out :dapprove:
