What a relief! When I read this thread title I thought it was another P-80 biting the dust.

Not if I can help it! Hoping this old girl has at least another 10 years in her.

Careful about a rebound relationship

and tor the thread title-It would be highly illogical to expect control with a compressed and frozen damper.

I swapped out my Nivomats for a lower mileage set from the wreckers this summer, and the ride height is back to what it was a few years ago. Strangely, only the driver's side shock was shot - boot ripped, casing rusted, no charge left. The passenger side looked great, almost like it had been replaced recently. Any difference in yours?

This one came from the passenger side, I picked up a set from Erie and replaced only the passenger side so far and it already rides like new. The drivers side looks like it may have been replaced at some point in the cars life.

But same thing, boot gone, leaking oil.

Only thing i'm not thrilled with is they sent me a set from an XC and the back rides up too high. Hoping they can swap them.
