As above, what is this (If such a thing exists)and if it is knackered, does this mean i will need to replace the shock(s) as there not cheap ones  hope this makes sense! ________________________________________ Ex-Black 6  - Speed has never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary...

On the rear damper? The rubber bushes that the bolts go through at a guess, you can buy them individually to replace if the damper is OK.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

tbh Phil im not too sure, Garage stated that the rear shock absorber bush.... is pretty knackered, and that hes not sure if they can just replace the rubber bush or if it will need a new shock (as its not on the standard shocks) Avo as its on avo coilovers on the front.the garage are not going to be doing it (Lack of funds on my part) but il need to know for it to be sorted! i should get more of an explanation when i get the car back tomorrow, but does that make any sense for now? (only went in for a bloody service! needs that, new ball joint, 2 tires Love french cars lol)________________________________________ Ex-Black 6 - Speed has never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary...

They just press out, if you ring Avo or Gaz they'll supply you a new bush, they should be polyurethane on those?________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Right okay! cheers Phillipso just to get my head round it (not mechanically minded when it comes to the rear end of a car, strangely..) But i know the Car is on Avo "suspension" adjustable coilovers at the front, what would be on the rear... Shock / dampers .. Sorry for the retarded question  ________________________________________ Ex-Black 6 - Speed has never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary... That's what gets you. |

If they're AVO they should look very similar to the Gaz ones, just black, almost the same design bar the internal shims.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.
