Does anyone know where I can get some rear shocks for a van? Proven Products can't source them and I have had a search through a couple of OS sites without any success. Second hand konis or Yellow Spax would do me as I could get those rebuilt if needed.
Another question. I have heard you guys talking about fitting auxiliary radiators in to keep cooling under control. Has anyone fitted a front mounted radiator to a clubman? If so what did you use?

Van rear shocks are 30mm longer than sedan ones, but you can fit sedan ones fine, I put new sedan ones in my van.

Some people say that the upmarket shocks are wider and may have an issue in vans, but others say that they've installed Koni's with sucess. The standard yum cha ones in the back of my van are fine.

Poee, is that 30mm body length or 30mm in the stroke? Anyway if you have done it so can I. I could put straps on the arms to stop them wrecking the shocks on full droop if it was necessary.

Front mount radiators.

A good mate here in adelaide runs an ALFA one.
Not sure about the model its from tho.

I'll find out if u want... and he's complaining that it still runs hot.

They are 30mm longer physically. Would travel that extra distance I would say. Unless you are carrying heaps of weight in the back, you will be fine with sedan ones.

Thanks for that Pete. I got the last 2 KYB in stock.
