I went into the local whiteline dealer to get a quote on a rear swaybar because my series1 Fairmont Ghia didn't leave the factory with one. I was quoted $235 for the adjustable one, the standard one was the same price and didn't come with the links I'll need. Does this seem like a decent price?
Also I have superlow Pedders all round on the standard shocks so I priced up some short stroke shocks, with Koni's and Dura's being the only ones available for the AU IRS setup. The Koni's were just under $250 each and the Dura's were $150 for the pair. I have never heard of Dura before so I thought I should ask on here to see if anyones running them? The search revealed nothing. I went in wanting Boge shocks but they don't make them in a short stroke variant |

Im sure blackers uses boge shocks, on SL's, and they are a mighty fine shock if I must say so.
Dont know if they are shortened though.

well when I was there the (experienced) salesman said he didn't think Boge made shortened shocks, then he made a call to the local rep and confirmed they didn't
I would really prefer a shortened shock, not only for ride but also for longevity I can't find any info on Dura shocks does the swaybar price seem ok? |
