mikesloan Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Anyone got any experience with Spax shock absorbers? Front O/S one on my TR4 has come apart in the middle. No wonder the car was bouncing!! Do I really have to replace both? Rimmers want £129 a pair and I need them by Thursday. Any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greeks Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 It's a bit late now as you're bound to have made a decision Mike, but you really should change them at the same time. ;) try a different stockists though you might get a better price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikesloan Posted October 10, 2004 Author Share Posted October 10, 2004 Thanks for the advice. I did replace both shock absorbers so that we could do the Round Britain but I fitted standard shocks made by County and supplied by Moss. They are softer but no problem for that. I won't be wasting my money on Spax again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Wright Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 It may be worth sending them back to spax for repair/overhaul...... Must be cheaper than buying a new pair. I have found that modern repro dampers go soft after a relatively short time. I've fitted a full set of koni's and have never looked back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
