Not sure why, but I’m finding my new bilsteins just a bit too hard (firm!) work....

Miss the suppleness of the original boges (before they leaked)....

Does anyone have some advice, or ideally a set of original spec boges, for front and rear?

I’m in london, UK but I can wait!

Thanks

Alex

It makes a difference if you're using the Bilstein, Koni or Boge/Sachs Track or Street flavors. It the Bilsteins that you've got are the track, then they won't ride as comfortably on street & DD use.

You might try the Koni street as they were very nice riding with just the right handling resistance for me over the last +/- 20K miles of my `73 2L's total 172K miles - with all the rest with the stock original Boge/Sachs shocks/struts.

If you can find a full matched date set of the old school Koni "Reds" street shocks & struts, then those can be rebuilt by Koni to as-new spec.

Cheers Mate!

Do you have the old Boge rears?

You need the lower perches. All parts are available new. As well as the perches but they are 65 dollars each. I have a roller car that might have the lower perches. Most used Boge shocks are well worn.

Alex and I have worked out a deal. I think he will be happy.

Here you go.
