Question: I have ready mant articles in these forums saything that Bodge is a good reliable cheaper alternative to Koni and Pedders type suspension. I was wanting to look into it further but dont seem to know how, i tried looking for websites or anything like that. Can anyone who already has some please let me know how they found them ? as well if they think they are reliable etc etc
thanks Brad` |

I'd be a bit wary about putting bodge shocks on my car...

Some people like them, and others don't, as already expressed, however my car is 100% better than with my old XR shocks and they had only done approx 85000k's when I replaced them. At the end of the day it will come to your budget mate. Cheers, John

When I was ringing around for some advice on lowering my car, I called a contact that Kings Springs put me on to. He said that Boge shocks are really good and better for the money than Monroe!
Now I've got no personal experience with the shocks myself, as both my AUs run Pedders shocks but that's what I've recently heard, for what it's worth. Cheers, GK

I seem to keep posting the same thing, so if you've searched you'd already know I have them with King SL all round, and think they're awesome. I understand why you may have had difficulty finding further info, if you were googling 'bodge', haha.
