Shock absorber required, not sure which one.

Hi folks, my Freda has just been for MOT and only failed on a N/S front shock absorber. The garage couldn't source a new one from suppliers because the registration number isn't recognised on systems :O So I now have to source one myself.
I've just had a look in the shop here and found one that says it fits all models,

Can anyone confirm if that is correct please?
The van is a 2000 2.5 diesel.
Thanks in advance

Welcome aboard.
Coming from the Bongomeister himself I'd say that's the one you want.
I'd seriously consider fitting a pair to keep things in trim.

As Bob has said ,better fitting as a pair to keep the balance, this is not a bad price for a Pair...

Brilliant, thanks very much for your quick replies. Good price on that link and delivered in time (hopefully) before MOT runs out
P.S. Thanks for the friendly welcome. I've had the Freda for a year now but I might be asking another couple of questions soon, I always feel like I'm taking liberties in forums when asking questions because I don't really have much I can give back other than appreciation
