RE: Ur-q Shocks

[glen powell <gpowell@acacianet.com>]

I have the Boge struts in my 85. I am very pleased with them. I would recommend
nothing stiffer for street use - they are very stiff. When I purchased them I requested
the OEM Boges for the quattro sport - they are sposed to be like 20-25% stiffer Vs
OEM for the ur-q. They are certainly stiffer than I remember the original struts to be.
Someone here looked up the Boge #s I bought and advised me that the Boge #s
were the stock ur-q struts, so I don't know for sure what to think about the quattro
sport bit. In any case, they are plenty stiff for street use and were extremely affordable
from RD Enterprises, like $60 each or something. Very pleased....
RD: 800-683-2890, the best prices on Koni too...

I called Boge and was told that Turbo gas for UrQ doesn't exist. Hydrolic 
only was available from them. I am looking to get a set of gas struts too 
but so far only hydrolic Koni or Bode was all I found.
