which struts/dampers on an RT

[montana]

im after peoples advice on which struts n dampers to purchase for my RT cos atm ive just got standard shagged ones.

i kno that the gmax ones are aobut the cheapest at bout 48 quid, but are they any good?

theres koni(adjustables) which are supposed to be sh*t hot but they r 100 quid each


also would there be any benefit (other than financial) to getting brand new standard struts on the front,cos although they dnt take in2 account the drop, the poor ride is to a point down to the fact that the standard ones are shagged?


opinions please

have you got springs on it at the mo?

someones sellin Gmax shocks for an RT for bout £40/50

You should be able to find a full set of shocks for £250, like Gaz or Konis or Avos. My shocks are shagged too and the fronts squeak, the ride quality is poor and I dont like going for a drive in the country lanes cus its bouncy and worse than an ice cream vans ride quality.

[plug] Carnoisseur do a wide range of shocks and are quite helpful, dont forget the discount if you are a Cliosport member! Give the Southend branch a ring [/end plug]

yep just springs on qat the mo with a 50 mil drop!



desperate to get sum new dampers on tho, is ther a web site for that carnoisseur?

spax adjustables are another option. (psx). thinks thats what im going to go for when i change my shocks.

remember on the front you need to know whether ur bolts are 54mm or 52mm apart!!!!!
