I have a duff rear shock on my MY96 Wagon so need some advice on getting a replacement (well actually 2 cos I’ll change the other rear one at the same time)

I am not really interested in spending ££££ on an adjustable kit so just want suitable replacement units, with some improvement if possible. I believe that the standard shocks are KYB units is this correct.

Is it worth getting gas filled units instead, if so I guess I would need to replace all 4 in one go. What should I go for gas filled wise??

Also any indication of costs would be great

Go to a rally team where they do GrN scoobys and they will throw new OEM shocks at you! LOL Seriously, you will get them very cheap.
