TDIPLC Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 Hi Continuity, I think you are refering to the Tein Basic system which costs £400 plus vat (Less Gold or Platinum discount). These have fixed damping and adjustable ride height. These are very cost effective and what we would describe as "entry level". There other more expensive variants available too. Hope this helps All the best Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for all the comments I should think there a lots of second shocks lying around, judging by the amount of suspension kits being fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Continuity Posted May 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Would a second hand shock be o.k to use.... (as long as its not leaked) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 it would be fine to use, HOWEVER, buy the pair , as in a matched USED pair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
