Gas...

better bounce and return more stable at higher shock rate and less likely to leak..

Oil went out with the Arc didnt it?

Well the gas ones were £29 inc vat and the Bilsteins were about £35 inc.
Will put my self levellers up on here and on Ebay if anybody wants them,
Talking to the guy in the shop he said lucky mine didn't have self levellers, I said why? As mine has lol, he said on the Mercs they were over £700 each side and mine were over £200 pattern price :jaw:
