if stuck see if they have a listing for FC holden, is the same mounting and length. Went to get some for my beddie recently and they were out of bedford but the guy said FC holden was the same and they had them in stock.
Just customize it!

They'll fit. I just replaced mine all round with KYBs and the front looked just like that.

I'm referring to the top photo.

just checked box, typical dont state what its off just a code, they are monroe gt gas shocks code 15-0096. and the ones I got looked the same as the beddy ones except they didn't have the dust sleeve over the shock only the chrome shaft. which I was advised was you don't need. Anyhow you could try your retailer on that monroe code to see what they look like if they have in stock.

Cheers Jeff

was told fc fit?Huh

i didnt realize until now but i have seen several vans fitted with fc schocks inc one of my own. if they are the same length and all that. Mezzmo (on here) has those fc fitted. i just didnt realize they were from a FC i thought they must have been another bedford shocker..

they do mount slightly different thou. take the plates off the bottom and use the round end on the bottem and i recon you would have to rheem out the bottom wishbone slightly too to bolt it up..

thanks for the info cfjeff.. very helpful!!

cheers
ben
