Does anyone know where i can get front shocks


I have already tried Pedders and Fulcrum and its not in there records ive tried aftermarket and suspension specalists 


Does anyone know where i can either get gas or coil over shocks 
 
Thanks

thanks ash  well just hope pins are still  making new ones that not about happen  that will just be another problem im starting to run around like chook with head cut off

ASH  just phone different pedders  they can have them tomorrow $94 each  monday i was in pedders local shop and they did not exist would take of car and measure  and they would cost over $150 each if they could get something THANKYOU

hello as stated earlier i purchased pedders shocks  had a mechanic try to fit them well  the pin is still a  problem went back to pedders they took some measurements and if they remove the bush to fit the pin that is nearly the same size as bush hole then not posible to fit with bush left shocks with pedders store check next year he stated he try and scorce some thing they have changed puppliers over years and some shocks have been made different and the LJ torana  he stated not good to fit he had one and did comparison
 
and back shocks bought ealse where when home thought this will be easy just had to cut metal sleve back and fit do up nuts wondered why nut not getting tight so crawl under more get good eye contact ??????????? the thred ????  one this one look at other remove shock the pin bent the shocks that came off are wider at pin so more weight over outside end of pin so now maybe cut off dril out replace with new bolt  live was not ment to be easy but does it have to be this?????

Hey Peter, 
I used lj torana Koni reds, drilled the top most out to 12mm from memory and used the 1000 bottom pin with rx3 rear leaf mount rubbers from memory or something similar, (search dimensions in the nolathane site) really easy to fit. Rear for a wagon, I used Koni reds for an alfa, bolted straight in. Can't remember the model number but can find it later if you need it.

Hey guys, 
 
I dropped my front shocks at Pedders almost 2 months ago to get the pin pressed in to the new shocks but they are either being lazy or haven't found any bushes to put the pin in as they said the bush will be destroyed when they take the pin out.
 
Does anyone have ideas where i can get a bushing for where the pin sits in the front shocks? 
 
Also someone said on this thread they put Koni red alfa shocks in the rear? Any luck on what part number it is?

Thanks Ash!
 
I spoke to them again on the phone and they said they will try a few more suppliers for the bushings and go from there.
 
If it goes on much longer ill probably go pick them up and take you up on the offer.
 
Thanks

Sounds like they are taking the piss. I did the conversion on some lc/lj torana konis. Used a leading cone shape pin made on the lathe to guide the shock pin nicely into the bush. Nice and controlled using a hydraulic press.

I used Nissan D21 front shocks for my lowered rear end but could easily use them as is on the front as well
almost nissame length as tory ones
