[s-cars] Help on rear shock choice

[Sean Douglas]

Boge 32-115-F is indeed turbo gas. I'm not even sure what the "turbo"
means, I thought they were either gas or hydraulic.

BTW, did they come with the bottom perch? Mine did not, which was
disappointing as most replacements do. I didn't want to reuse my old
ones, so I ended up buying new perchs.
