I plan on changing all the shocks in both my 240's by next summer.
and using if available only original boge struts.
Wearing out a pair of rear Sach shocks on the 240 in under two years and 20,000 mile, I definitely want to use the original Boges.
I remember reading that during the Sach/Boge merger the quality varied depending on the where they were made and the corresponding part number.
I'm concerned that the higher quality variants will not be available in the near future and would also like to know the corresponding part numbers so I can stay away from the Sach cheapies.
Most important,, Should I start my search now...
