favour to ask from someone with a TC book handy, whats the price for GM rear shocks for a saloon (not self leveling)

Never touched the rears under my ownership, its now almost on 110k miles i bet they have never been done.

Bought the springs this weekend, thought i would do shocks at the same time when i change the springs.

TIA

Sorry, the price I suggested on Sat was a bit low, gone up to £45 + VAT each now...

Thought you said £20 for drop links?

£45+ vat is quite cheap i think

I will ring Vx tommorow and tag them onto the order of the zorst for my dads 2.2

Today's top tip, hold the top of the shock with an adjustable spanner not a 6mm as they tend to snap when you try to undo the 16mm nut.
An adjustable has a bit more meat to swing against.

It's bizzare how many 'movers' I have. From little 4" up to 18/20"

Thought I said £20 for a pair of droplinks, and £40 + VAT each for rear shocks?  My brain was mush, so could have been spouting gibberish though

Are the self-levelling rear shocks much more expensive?

from memory, about £20 more each, so around £130 + VAT the pair

[Albatross]

Any ideas on who I can ask for part numbers from for front and rear MV6 shocks (self-levelling).

As these aren't standard for my car (Elite) the VRN won't do them any good.

BTW: What's a "TC Book" and can I get one legitimately?
