LN130 aftermarket shocks

Post by Engineer »

gidday after my trip into longwoods i now need new shocks as i f**kd one so might aswell go do all 4. what brand do you guys recommend? i dont want ranchos or anything silly cos i only got a bloody wee surf.
I was thinking KYB all round. anyone know if they come in long series for the rear?
anyone use KYB or what do you guys use? i wanna steer clear of Gabriels as my mates had a bad run with his.
Cheers Ryan.

Go the OME's in the rear and anything like Monroe's in the front.

Get the OME soft coils as well as the shocks. You will get a good lift and a good soft ride with pretty good articulation for a stockish setup.

Does the newer model Surf have the same rear shock as LN130?
