Hi all,
The Boge rear shocks on my 914 are worn out. The fronts are probably no better. So I need to fix this. Not sure what to do. I read Boge's are not able to be rebuilt cost effectively? I read KYB are harsh (but price looks right). I think that leaves Bilsteins - but with Bilsteins replacing original Boges do I need anything special to make them fit? With some guidance from Forum members I'll know what to buy - and will then place a WTB ad on this forum (or suggestions where to buy are most welcome too). Many thanks in advance DaveO Australia |
