Shocks

I have decided to go with monroe GTs for my TE, the lowest quote i have been given was 120 for front and the same for the back, by repco. Does that sound about right or can i get them cheaper elsewhere, im in northern NSW if anyone knows somewhere cheaper, also anywhere in the tweed and brisbane areas. I asked if the shocks are the same for use with stock and lowered springs, apparently they were, is that right
cheers.......Tim

i thought you could get a short shock which is for lowered
car it has less travel than a normal shock so lowered
cars dont have springs fall out when you jack it up

i wish i was loaded! nah there's just a few things i aint gonna skrimp on - and one of them is shocks/suspension. i want my ride to be comfortable at high speeds and comfortable taking corners at high speeds. it's all about priority. at the same time all my paint and body mods will be done by a mate for dirt cheap so it allows money for other things.

cheers
p.s. when i win the lotto i'll let you guys know
