My VX II Equipe has done 276,000 klm and I think the front struts are just about gone.
I have to bounce the front suspension quiet a few times before shock inserts start working. Once I do this they seem to be OK after that.
I have Pedders Comfort Ride struts and these are no longer available. Pedders want $950 to supply and fit equivalent struts and replace the rear two shocks as well.
Just looking on ebay, "Suzuki Super" and Webco strut assemblies are listed at a fraction of what Pedders want.
The Suzuki look the better units of these two as "Webco" has had recalls in recent times.
I have not yet checked what Holden genuine units are worth.
Has any Forum member had any experience fitting either of these brands or any other brand of after market front strut assemblies ( and rears ) to a standard VX II Commodore ?
I would appreciate any informed comment.
