Bodge Shocks Question

[brad`]

Question: I have ready mant articles in these forums saything that Bodge is a good reliable cheaper alternative to Koni and Pedders type suspension. I was wanting to look into it further but dont seem to know how, i tried looking for websites or anything like that. Can anyone who already has some please let me know how they found them ? as well if they think they are reliable etc etc

thanks

Brad I have just put boge shocks on my car within the last month and I think they are great, a good ride but of course a little hard but you expect that when the car is also lowered. Fulcrum Suspension is a forum sponsor (see sponsors page) and if memory serves me correctly the contact is a guy from Melbourne (I could be wrong as I'm getting a little senile in my old age). I am confident that he will steer you right, and remember to mention that you are a forum member. You could either ring or email him.
Some people like them, and others don't, as already expressed, however my car is 100% better than with my old XR shocks and they had only done approx 85000k's when I replaced them. At the end of the day it will come to your budget mate. Cheers, John

When I was ringing around for some advice on lowering my car, I called a contact that Kings Springs put me on to. He said that Boge shocks are really good and better for the money than Monroe!

Now I've got no personal experience with the shocks myself, as both my AUs run Pedders shocks but that's what I've recently heard, for what it's worth.

Cheers,

GK

I seem to keep posting the same thing, so if you've searched you'd already know I have them with King SL all round, and think they're awesome. I understand why you may have had difficulty finding further info, if you were googling 'bodge', haha.

i highly reccomend the Boge shocks

The Monty drove my car after driving his car (he has SL kings with monroe shocks and i have SL kings with Boge shocks) and he said mine felt SO much nicer to drive
