GSF Selling S60 new non-OE rear shocks @£60/Pair delivered
Sixty quid a pair!
Have fitted these to my 2002 S60 D5. No issues whatsoever. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3808150731...84.m1423.l2649 GSF's eBay account, selling off new old stock I guess. 90-odd pairs listed there anyway. Bargain! |

Strange. The listing is showing 2008 D5 as a 163bhp? Not 185. I wonder would they fit mine..

Just had a look.... unbelievably they are doing a further 10% discount bringing them down to £46.98 incl delivery !
Trouble is ... are they any good ?? Anybody ?? Believe they are "own brand" made by "Amtex" or could be "ALKO" having tried to do a bit of research.

I know you're talking rear shocks but this may be relevant anyway.
I bought non-branded front struts from GSF, after 6 months the bracket for the drop link broke away from its welds, and the one from the other side looked equally weak. Not good. I took them out and replaced with Sachs (Boge) from these guys: http://www.carshockabsorbers.co.uk/ - I did all 4 corners. They were better AND cheaper than GSF or Euro car parts. The old v70 handles and rides like a dream now.
