Front struts/shocks

Recent New Shocks.

I have used a lot of Monroes in the past and yes, they are good. I have just done my rears with gas units from gearmaxparts at £38.99 per pair. Plus bump stops and dust covers from nmautoparts at £18.80. I have bought new gas, twin tube shocks for the front from clickcarparts at £29.16 per pair (not fitted yet), plus bump stops and dust covers from doctor_car for £17,18, all the above on ebay. If you find you need to replace the rear top mounts, I have a spare pair. I did have to rush off to my local VW TPS for some new clips and plastic push locks for the inner arches and rear spring, lower, spring seats. I measured the springs which are 10mm shorter than new, but refitted them. the ride height gained about 12mm each side due to the new lower seats.
 
Looks like i will order a set for the Tdi.
If they arrive as quick as the towbar i recently fitted they will arrive from Germany within 2 days !
 
Tow bar - might want to uprate rear springs and shocks.

Just fitted Bilstein B6/B8 combination on a 1.4 petrol and it is truly transformed!
