This makes good reading :-) here in the UK I cannot find shocks for front or back ! KYB no longer makes them for MVBRUMBYBRATS. Monroe doesnt either. Feel like I am banging my head against a wall . The £ against the Oz $ is a joke and if I could afford them ? Aussie post charge like a wounded bull !...

Hello All , yes its stock standard except for the rear box (the original rusted out) and the Cherry bomb was cheaper and its good steel too. My truck does run rich but I put that down to wear in the carb (truck has 112,000 miles on the clock). It doesnt seem to affect how it goes though. "MO"

Been following this thread with interest , normally I am an "as brochure" sort of bloke and keep my trucks stock standard.(probably because I am not the best mechanic in the world) But I must admit I do like the look of that :-). Where was that laser cut kit advertised ? I am sure a few other MVBrum...
