(Borge RM342 each at BA) found second hand at RM120 each but i'd rather find some economical new ones if at all possible .....the rear Boge were quoted at RM175 each so thats fine ...)any assistance would be greatly appreciated as i'm on a budget atm but i really need to change the suspension (last time the shocks were changed was in Oct 2001 so it's way overdue ....)thanks to all!</p></blockquote><p></p>
