They were a lot better than the standard stuff I had but I'd much prefer something better. They're good for the price and if its mainly a daily or a cruiser they'll be fine. I've done probably close to 10,000km in mine with no drama's so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

senna_T Forged Member Lifetime Members 15,818 Member For: 18y 20d Gender: Male Location: SW Sydney Posted 14/02/12 11:47 PM Share Posted 14/02/12 11:47 PM They aren't guaranteeing that they will last forever - however if they are in the original car that they were fitted to and the claim is being made by the original purchaser of the shocks, then yes, they will be replaced under warranty not including labour costs. It is extremely generous and gives a good reflection on the quality of Boge shocks (Boge is a ZF Industries Brand - same mob that makes the 6spd auto) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ale Member 249 Member For: 13y 6m 2d Posted 15/02/12 03:28 AM Share Posted 15/02/12 03:28 AM I got my springs and shocks from this guy, Kings springs and lowered ultima shocks, delivered to my door within 8 days for $555http://myworld.ebay.com.au/kmal9112/?_trksid=p4340.l2559I tried emailing wholesale suspension and was ignored so went with this guy.He gave me good advice on what springs I needed for the eyebrow heights I wanted, very prompt and impecable service. Very happy with the outcome.The ride is really good, much better than expected, and for a everyday work car they are fine.In regards to will they last, I cant answer, only had them for a fortnight, but a quick Google didnt come up with anywarnings about Ulitma as a brand.just another avenue for you to explore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
