I have two that I used for about 6 months. Bought them brand new about 2 years ago. Will sell for $100 for the pair plus shipping

Dave  
Are your shocks still available for Ford Think?

Are the front and rear interchangeable?

Questions:  
Are the original upper shock mount bushings in good condition?  
Are replacements upper shock  
bushings available ?

I saw that NEV replacement shocks were adjustable. How important is that?

These would be for a 4 seat Think

Appreciated  
Bob

The bushings are in fair condition but if I was going to install them I would just buy a new set as they’re cheap.

If you’re wanting to put bigger tires on the NEV replacement shocks can be adjusted to be very stiff possibly eliminating the chance of tire rub but at the same time making for a rough ride.
