australian lada niva forum

I've been able to source a '2 inch lada australia' lift kit (on my donor car), but the shocks are looking a little sad, is it advisable to put new shocks on with the kit, or just use existing shocks on the car I'm rebuilding? and if I go for replacements... which ones?

seems the Lada ones are the go. Although the monroes on the gremlin seemed ok ... The Boy now has'em on his.

Front are fine on standard length shocks with a 2" lift.

But most people recommend longer shocks in the rear with a 2" lift.
Having said that I'm currently running standard length shocks with my 2" lift (Hoodoo) and haven't had problems as yet.
