I had mine replaced a couple of months ago. IIRC they cost me around £180 fitted. I went with OEM equivalents and my Mechanic down the road fitted them for me.

I will dig out the receipt later and post a definate price. Or Phone Richard at Blue Streak (Independant Toyota Specialist) on 01604 759966. They are in Northampton.

He can supply the full service (i.e parts and fitting), just the parts, or if you get the parts elsewhere he is still happy to fit them if need be. Just mention the club or me (Garrick)

I also need some new ones as my reard drivers side shock is leaking. I was thinking of going for the KYB +20% shocks from Fensport, but then saw those Gmax ones, so not sure either!! Will probably go for the Gmax ones as they are cheaper and money is a problem!!

i've got a set of 30mm drop springs and matching shocks sitting in the garage, KYB i think ?

open to offers....

Used or new mate??

Do you know if they are +20% or +30%?

Would you sell just the shox??

+20% used but look like new.... been sat for about 2 years i only fitted the front.

i can chuck the springs if you just buy the shocks....

So you've only got the two rear shocks. No front ones?

[Unity Jon]

fronts are fitted, with the dropped springs, to provide sharper turn in and stiffer geometry for the front making it more likely for the back to step out at speed when i want it too ;)

haven't looked for a while, but there are always parts on eBay and I have purchased US bits for the corolla too.

Have a check on there as it can save you a lot of money
