Looking forward to giving it a damn good thrashing when the snow and ice clears! Was a bit dissapointed when I started stripping the buggie tho,the rear shock was like a dog leg and the other damper rods were pitted so contacted GAZ for new damper rods and seal kits. Sorry sir we dont do that send them down and we repair them, "and how much will that cost" £27.50 per shock and how much for the damper rods thats included in the price sir a full rebuild new damper rods seals and valves all for £119 delivered back to the door GOOD DEAL!
