The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

hi guys i did post this question on my lat topic but got no reply what sort of shocks should i get i looked at rimmers i am keen on the adjustable ones but as i don't know i am asking advice ;D

Depends, what is the car going to be used for?
Just some new shocks with decent springs will firm it up quite nicely...

Why do you want adjustables? It's nice to have the possibility of adjustment... But hand on heart will you honestly ever change it once it's been set? And would it be that much of an improvement on a (at a guess) road car?

If you're set on them though, Avo shocks come pretty highly reccomended...
I picked up some second hand Spax for £20 not long ago, with springs, not as good as the Avo (apparently) but they'll do, there's some bargains about.

No harder than 190lb for a road car either...
And the rear is pretty good as is, definitely want it softer than the front anyway.

Thanks for the info very helpfull lol and the adjustable shocks yeah probly only change once lol

I thought the English language had also capital letters, dots and commas.

Steady on Nick, I'm only 22.

Give the guy a break, we know exactly what he is asking and schools don't teach the English language at all well nowadays so c'mon Jeroen; cut the fella some slack eh?

After all, his Dutch is probably not as good as your English, so is it fair to assume that his English would be?

Hay Guys, Sorry my english may not be up to standard I was only at english school till year 7 after that I was in Switzerland Anyway not long now until I get to play with my new car I will have photos soon Have a good day.
