Right, i have full AVO set up on the car from previous owners, one of the "Bushes" on the rear shock is coming apart, avo have said that they can just send a replacement no problem.

i need to figure out which kit is on there, looking through the history just says Avo kit with a price and no part number / model etc, and no identifying marks on the shock itself....

Can anyone with more technical knowledge than me, which is about equal to a blind one armed monkey narrow it down, surly cant be that many! and would the bush actually be so different from kit to kit??

Avo here

Unsure

LOL ever the helpful one, Razz i asked them for a replacement bush, and they asked for the part number or at least a picture, im going to ask the local garage to whack it on the ramps so i can just take a picture, cant get it high enough with the crappy scissor jack due to the retarded ride height Laugh my ass off just thought some one with a bit more knowledge might come back and say it will only be one of two for instance

If you take the shock off and clean it up there will be some kind of marking on it Smile

Or at least send them a photo of it cleaned up with measurements of the bush

As said you should be able to work it out from the price.

Most likely to be a GTZ kit though.

Update on this:

Picture, yes its a tad rusty under there Whistle LOL

Its just the bush as circled, is this what would have come with it originally from Avo? Looks to be the GTZ Kits as said previously perhaps ? Unsure

yup, using the link you posted above it looks most likely to be the GTZ kit seeing as the Roadsport is
