Shock absorbers for 172...

[ryan ellis]

Hi folks,

Hoping you can offer a bit of advice on this one... I need to get new rear shock absorbers for my 172 (Y plate) but I'm having real difficulty finding anyone who actually stocks the parts and searching google is just as useless! There's a guy selling new OEM parts on ebay for £40 a side, which I thought was pretty cheap. I need new rear anti-roll bar bushes too, so hopefully if anyone can recommend a supplier for the shocks, they might stock them too...
Oh, I know most folks will say just get coilovers, and as much as I'd like that I a) can't afford at the mo, b) don't want to lower the car!

Cheers

If your after OEM then just go to your local renault dealership there not expensive

I struggling to find OEM dampers too! rear beam has an intigrated ARB. The only bushes on the back are what attach the beam to the car.
