As some of you know I've been having problems with the Cerbera grounding
www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&t=274417

Nigel (AVO) from AVO promised on the forum to help me out. Turns out that the bump stops supplied with my AVO shocks were 25mm instead of 50mm. Apparently, my local dealer had supplied the wrong set up. Being last June when I purchased them, they weren't too accommodating.

AVO UK on the other hand have been brillant. Nigel asked me to send him the old shocks and they's replace them.

Here's the new shocks that arrived friday.



The new style AVO shocks aren't welded like the previous ones but have threaded tops to the piston rod, so I've change the bump stops to 60mm progressive.

Took an hour or so to fit the new shocks. Took her out for a spin yesterday and tried my best to get the rear to ground, but couldn't. The handling is really firm.

So Nigel and AVO, thanks for the advice and new shocks. Really appreciate it.
