charliek Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Hi all, Thank you for the warm welcome yesterday! I'm starting my mission to know exactly what every part on the car is! I've attached a picture of the suspension - I believe these are Spax shocks? Please could someone let me know if these are stock (assuming not) and if they are any good? Appreciate the photo is a bit crap but any info would be appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Colonial Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Definitely Spax - calling @DamperMan to the thread please… 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Carrot Steve Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Yeah definitely Spax. Everything looks very clean and tidy down there have to say 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamperMan Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Definaltely not Spax... The sticker is, (assuming they have not come from an ebay seller we turn a blind eye to.) but dampers are not Spax. They look like AVO or GAZ to me. Theres a lot of detail differences such as the knob, and top loop design which stand out as being AVO or GAZ. My bet would be GAZ. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pd2 Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Look very similar to mine which I believe are AVO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliek Posted February 13, 2023 Author Share Posted February 13, 2023 Thanks everyone - having done some looking online at GAZ and AVO products, I'm now not sure what they are! @DamperMan do you know if they should have a part number on them somewhere which will confirm what they are?

DamperMan Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 They should have part numbers. The should also have batch codes… both should be stamped into the bodies.. either above the thread or below. Avo tend to use coloured polyurethane type material bushes also for bump stops too. (This is not a fixed rule). Gaz tend to mostly use rubber. I think the style of the upper collet and support is more Gazzard style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
