Default Super Autumn Special on OE Replacement BA-FG

For the month of March we have our Ford OE replacment dampers for our Ford forum members.
They are the non adjustable monotube dampers to replace the orginal factory dampers from BA through to FG. The front dampers are adjustable at the spring seat and retain all the original travels. The rear dampers are inverted.
The set this month is $900 with the option of either free installation for customers in Melbourne or free post Australia wide!

Are these best suited to standard springs? My G6ET is on Kings SSL all round I am needing new shocks, was thinking Monroe GT sport as they developed their shocks with King (apparently) and reviews have been positive.

If these would also be suitable might be worth spending a bit more.

Hi old Mate,

The dampers will be fine with the King springs and we have used these damping forces with a higher rate with no wheel control issues. The dampers have a 45mm digressive monotube piston which is much larger than the Monroe which I think runs a 35mm twintube type.
Our damper response is world class along with improved ride and handling.
Cheers
Brett

Hi JGP,

We only have one set of the FG OE left. The kits did not sell very well as most customers bought the adjustable kits. They sat on the shelf for too long so we won't be selling the OE kits anymore mate, Sorry.

Cheers
Brett

I have a stock FGX XR8. Will these shocks alone improve the ride confort?

We have revised the dampers with new valving components and now offer better ride quality which we feel is more relaxed than the FGX:-)
