shock absorber for vn

[andyli]

hi, guys, need front and rear shock absorber for my vn, which brand? how much do they charge to put it in? the vn currently drive like a boat, need to be fixed soon.

If you want cheap, KYB are cheap. If you want something better, Monroe GT shocks are a little stiffer than standard.

many thanks, what sort of money should I pay for the GT, and the labour? I am used to my vn and will keep it.

[Morton]

Look to pay up to $200 in labour to have them all installed. The shocks themselves could be around $120 for a pair.

i put GT monroe lowered shocks in the rear of my car and it was fairly easy!, its good to have a mate help you too.

GT monroes made a huge difference to the stock ones.. alot better.

monroe have got a new shock out. called GT Sport Lowered. Designed to be compatible with most lowered spring rates. Worth the extra coin. Put em in mine a while back. Pretty easy to fit. Didnt even jack the car. have to use GT GAS for the front tho.

I would to the Monroe GT shocks. Shouldn't be too hard to fit yourself if you want to get out of the labour fee.

I used to have Monroe's in mine, then went to KYB's and I can safely say i'll never buy Monroe's again IMHO the KYB's are definitely the better shocker and they have a better price tag too. There are better shockers out there further up in the price range (like Koni etc.) but bang for your buck stick to KYB.

where can I buy it?

Burson Auto Parts stock stacks of KYB stuff. Monroe GT Gas are a stiffer shock, and worth the extra buck over the KYB stuff if you ask me.
