which shock absorber for Hilux Vigo?

[Mornes]

Hi, im very likely due for a new set of shocks soon and very confused as to which brand to support. Im currently fitted with OME, which have done ok for now, but is a rip off at what they cost and offer in terms of life. A friend of mine tried the Iron Man, which ended up being putty man. It didnt even see 40 000km before both front units fell apart.

I'm quite interrested in Koni or Bilstein, which i believe can be adjusted and can be reserviced for more or less the cost of a OME set. Anyone out there that can offer any experience?

Hi Morne, how many km's ON your OME'S?

Have you tried Mikem? Jhb Booysens, guys speak highly of em!

Me personally like IM

ive done 60 000km now, which i suppose is not bad, but they have been suspect for a long time now.

havent heard of them yet, i go check em out.

thanks!

Just do a search on Mikem here on the Forum. You will find plenty of info

Morne, going the route of any serviceable shocks are a wise decision when you look at the cost for one.
I've fitted Monroe Gas Magnum's (not first set) and I am very satisfied.
