Shucks only for the 1.1 & 1.4, If only they had some for the 1.9

They're spheres & not struts, i'm sure they advertised about a month ago, but there was no photo, so of course at £50 i got rather excited that they might be struts, but unfortunately they told me they were just spheres

Funny looking spheres

This is the info that's listed and it does state its a 'GENERIC PHOTO' so I would a least expect the item to be a suspension strut rather than a Sphere

but under the Technical Information listing its listed as follows :-

POSITION ON CAR Front

DATE RANGE 82 - 93

UPPER MOUNT ~

LOWER MOUNT ~

INFO ~

SPEC ~

TYPE - SPHERE

PART NUMBER SP8006

I sent the guy a message and got back a rather curt response saying they are spheres not shock absorbers, either way the adverts dumb and the prices are far more than GSF. Plonker!

Ah!

In that case, I'll await my own, personalised, "Eff off" message 'cos I sent him a message too.......

Doesn't say much for a trader if he can't even be arsed to post a meaningful picture of his wares. What's next - posting pictures of condoms to flog a raincoat?
