Hi all,

my Penske shocks (7400 Series) come to the end of life so I have to replace them.
Any suggestions for replacement?

Not sure about series as Tux got them custom made for Noble by Protech. Im sure if you ping him a message he can give more info.

All I can say is that its made a huge difference to my Noble.

On the topic of protechs - Where can I get a set of the inserts that allow the protechs to bolt up into the suspension mounts ? Mine got destroyed when I took the shocks off (they had seized in place) - Need a new set after the refurb.

There has been a change of rose joint in the new dampers to make then easier to fit so the old spacers might not be available , will probably have to return the shocks to Protech to have the latest rose joints fitted then Protech car supply you with the new bushes !!

Current cost is £880+vat inc springs . We use the 600 series double adjustable .
