I don't know how Matt Savage does them for that price - I paid around that to get them direct from the states even when the dollar was weakmister munkey wrote:Anyone know about these?

I certainly wouldn't fit them in "sideways" as in the pic.
I've got Airlift 1000 in mine and they're the best thing I've done to the Bongo apart from fit an eberspacher heater

Totally adjustable ride control - I've removed a row of seats so its lighter than stock but with the van laden and towing just pump in a few extra psi and the effect is amazing - NO bottoming out on the bumpstops, even on the "switchback" A87 over the peatbogs to Portree on Skye when pressing on for the ferry.................
C'mon Kirsty - get yer finger out - a bit less posting and you'll have time to fit yours............
