Spring Seats

I'm having my garage fit some new shocks to my 1850. How much should I expect to pay in labour per corner. They told me that if I got them with the spring seats that it would be quicker to fit them. <br>
<br>
Are the spring seats the disks that come in the box with the shocks? <br>

It's hard to tell from some of the part descriptions whether the items are a unique item or an upgrade a previous one.<br>

Uprated Brakes

Thanks guys<br>
<br>
Really good posts on this one. There is a lot to consider here. £200 for the Sierra conversion sounds like a tremendous bargain for the parts. Is it really this cheap?<br>

How does this kit compare the Sprint Parts one listed above. Does it do the same thing?<br>

Re: my back end feels a bit "boaty"

Could be the shocks, but the bushes are a far more likely culprit. It's probably worth doing them together though.<br>
<br>
That's a scarry feeling. I first noticed the problem on my 1850 when I had to let off the throttle while travelling at high speed on the motorway. This created some serious ...
