If you need to rebuild your shocks, your price might be different, depending on what needs to be done on yours...

My other option was to have completely new shocks built to order, but the research & development would have taken too long. But still, it would have been cheaper than a set of new OEM shocks...
The 1000 Eu is for the 2 or all the 8 shocks?

Just the 2 front shocks. There are 6 shocks on the car (2 front, 4 rear)
Shocks are about 1000EU each from Lamborghini

A bit late to the party but leaking front shock brings me here for help.

Is the koni sport still available (8241-1079/1121)?

Why isn't Spax liked?

How good are Aldan?

and are there any others?

Many thanks

Sky,

Schocks are available from Lambo, but they're about 800£ each...
I had mine rebuilt with custom made parts, which was a lot cheaper

If you're in the UK, you might ask Mike Pullen if he can help, though he didn't have any used ones when I asked earlier this year...

You can send the shocks to my specialist, who can rebuild them for you as required
