Which Inserts(shocks) for my rev1??

Post by Paul R »

Hi,

I'm going to be buying some inserts for my tubby soon. Has anyone bought a set of KYB gas shocks?? Fensport do them for 50 quid each.

Is there another supplier I should try or some better shocks? I dont want to pay more than 200 quid really.

Cheers,

Paul.

Konis are reputedly the topshop but around £100 a corner.

There are KYB, GAB, Tokico(imported from USA - very cheap) etc and they all provide a different ride, apparently.
I've got some rebuildable REV1 struts to which I will be fitting Koni inserts so you can guess what my opinion is going to be.

HTH
