OME shocks - SOLD
I have a front and rear set of OME shocks for the GU /Y61.
Some history
I bought it from a forum member who left the country who had it fitted for 8 months. It was fitted on his vehicle as part of a 2inch lift kit
It was then fitted to my vehicle for 13 months and removed due a communication failure when I upgraded my coils.
The fitment center scratched them slightly during removal and did not return the rubbers, washers and nuts on the front shocks. I checked the standard nissan shocks rubbers, washers and nuts should fit.
Any reasonable offers will be considered

Re: OME shocks
Easy way: Jump on a corner, and see how quickly it stops. It must go down and back up, not continue going up and down.
Best way: Remove shock, and stroke it through it's entire range both ways as quickly as you can. It must give consistent friction. If it has spots where it suddenly goes soft, it is tired.

Re: OME shocks

Re: OME shocks
Hi would these shocks be suitable for a 2" lift, I intend to replace the total standard suspension soon however I would like to do the lift at the same time.
