Short answer is that there are no more in the country.

Long answer is that you need to get your current ones rebuilt using inserts (Koni for example) or switch to SA413 GTi struts. Problem with using those is that you need to change the brake lines, and they are 1" shorter when fitted.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that you can buy replacement shocks for the rear, but the fronts will have to be rebuilt.

Prices I've seen on here were $800 for front and rear Koni, or about $600 for the front only.

Gabriel, Monroe and Pedders also make rear shocks for between $80 and $160 a pair.

just rang pedders if anyone wants to know got a quote for the rear shocks at $80 each, ordering new front shocks for $270 each. no one in my area remakes/regases the mighty boy front shocks.
