Has anyone got a good supplier of these? Website suggest to contact distributors but is a bit vague.

Any help appreciated,

Thanks,
Peter

goodwin don't ship to Aus anymore. Check the sponsors page, I think there deskspeed racing is Goodwin's distributor.

If http://www.fatcatmotorsports.com/ don't ship directly, use a US Mail forwarder:

That's where i started,they are only interested in wholesaling them ,selling you a complete suspension set, or charging a $75 "Consultation " fee for an inquiry.

As far as i can see they don't list suppliers.

Peter,

I recently approached FCM via email and asked how I could buy them as Goodwin don't send to Aus anymore. They offered to send them to me directly, which they subsequently did.

So my suggestion would be to send them an email and ask directly.

Regards...

My set arrived last week. I got then from Moss. I had to wait about 6 weeks for them to get some stock and over 2 weeks for shipping. I ordered a set direct from FCM a few years ago but the guy forgot about my order and never sent them. I eventually got a refund but I'm less than impressed with FCM customer sevice.

Ok, but Goodwin said as well as not sending to Aus they don't stock FCB for Gaz.

Have sent FC an email so will see what happens and post the result,

PC, an alternative might be tbro's recent suggestion:

I may be incorrect on this but I'm pretty sure that the only difference that makes the bump stops shock specific is the size of the hole to match the size of the shock pushrod... I'll bet one of those bump stops will fit over the GAZ shock.
