Hello friends,
I need your advice to change rear absorbers.
I've ordered from Mecaparts 2 pcs rear shock absorbers for my GTA, MP2629.
Are there any other parts recommended to be changed when I change rear absorbers?
My Alpine has 61.000 km, only one s.a. is leaked, most probably because the car was not used.
Thanks for your advices.
Drive safe your Alpine's.
Regards,
Adrian

Re: Rear shock absorbers
Hello Adrian!
Your car doesn't have a lot of kilometers on the clock and the springs don't need to be changed because they still need to have a lot of force.
But the shock absorber foot mounts may need to be changed if they are still original and too old.
(Reference: RENAULT 77 04 002 041).
They must be available from SIMON normally!
Sincerely!

Re: Rear shock absorbers
Hello Adrian!
However, they didn't have many kms of your shock absorbers for one of them to leak.
We must be able to do 80,000 kms with it, but it all depends on the driving style and their age as well.
Be sure to check the condition of the shock absorber cups if they start to squeak, knock or click while
driving, otherwise it would be better to replace them.

Re: Rear shock absorbers
Hello,
I have some noises, may be due to this "Be sure to check the condition of the shock absorber cups if they start to squeak, knock or click while
driving, otherwise it would be better to replace them."
Do you have a photo from Simon catalogue or original Renault code?
Thanks and Regards,
Adrian

Re: Rear shock absorbers
Thanks John Luke,
I've ordered almost all necessary parts for replacing shock absorbers, except part no.121075, out of stock.
This is superior cup but let's hope that mine is in a good condition.
Once again, thanks.

Re: Rear shock absorbers
Hello Adrian!
For the part referenced 121075 see also with our usual suppliers in France NG SPORTS, AUTO RACING, BVO SPORT.
Otherwise there are always parts that are difficult to find for our cars despite new products from time to timeat MECAPARTS, SIMON mainly.
Hopefully we'll have more later so we can continue to ride with our Alpine elders !
