We need some new rear shock absorbers for our Roadster. Saw a previous advert on here which recommended Halfords and Monroe R3258. Unfortunatley these dont seem to be available any more. Has anyone purchased any recently and is able to give me Make/contact details etc please?

Re: Rear Shock Absorbers
They pop up on ebay occasionally I bought some about six months ago.
I still have my old ones, just in case. They were not leaking, just looking very rusty as they could be 35 years old.
www.earlpart.co.uk Tel: (01773)719504 still list them as available.MOC member since 05/97
1984 Marlin Roadster SWB.
1800TC, Unleaded ported head, stage 2 cam. Ford Type 9 gearbox, Dolomite Sprint rear axle fitted with MGF disc brakes.
Three core radiator, Renault Clio vented front discs.
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
Loads of Marlin Reference can be found documents here or there. -

Re: Rear Shock Absorbers
I bought Monroes less than 12 months ago - I ran them and they gave me a list of stockists, mostly motor factors ( camberly auto factors was one ), had them within a couple of days - might of changed of course now but was not that long ago I got mine.Comment
