Default Adjustable gaz shock absorber damper suspension

Hi to all

all shocks are original to my 2000 XJR. it is finally showing its age and the rear end suspension is developing some loose noise.

I decided to give a try to this shock set. just placed the order and takes a few weeks to build

will keep every one posted.

My other british car has gaz gt in all corners with std springs. Car is pretty light weight but shocks are very coarse in adjustments. On top of that the shocks are pretty surface stiff to drive and no progressive damping at all. By surface stiffnes I mean not turned too stiff, but all around stiff. These can be adjusted up to no dampning at all.

But if that is not a bad thing, then these are okay shocks. Maybe with stiff springs these work better. But still no progressive dampning.
