These are now very hard to get hold of. Have been talking to Tiff about bringing a batch from KYB's into the country from USA via Ireland to save on tax. This is a serious question so please only reply if you are SERIOUSLY intersted.

We are looking for numbers who would be interested in purchasing a FULL set of suspension struts. We'll get back to you on prices as soon as possible.

Trying to cut out the import tax Frosty. I have a friend that imports items from the States so may as well make use of that corridor.

Must depend upon cost as I only really need a set of front struts and finances are a bit tight - but very interested and no doubt handling will benefit from replacements all round.

Any idea as to cost yet? I could do with a full set... if the price is right.

Likewise - wouldn't do me any harm to have a set lurking in the shed for when they're needed, but an idea of cost is a must.

Would be interested Ewen - although like many others here it depends on the cost! Are these 1500 dampers or can you get hold of 1300 ones as well?

Sorry for the delay in replying but my new towing vehcile (Landrover Freelander TD4) brok down and is out of action probably until next week. You did tell me Tiff lol

I'll get back to you all with prices but this exercise is of course to see if we buy in bulk who would cough up the money. They aren't going to be cheap but it's better than nothing at all. I'll be discussing the state of affairs at the weekend.

I know I need at least one set but could go for more. Keep an eye on this space please. Good response which is the main thing.

Hi Ewan you can add my name to the list of interested parties - I have 3 projects under way at present, and soon will start my 4th. All will require shocker up-grades so if the price is competitive I,m in the market for a bulk order.
Look forward to further news from you
