So what other shocks are CCX owners using? I really don't want to pay $106.25 plus parts per,for a 31 year old shock rebuild. I remember when I purchased them I was told by Peter Bayer that they had worked with Koni and that these shocks were custom made for CCx Cobra, sounds fantastic. When I go to install them they don't fit, the lower hole is to small for the bolt on the Jaguar suspension.I call up Contemporary and I get from Peter "yes we are aware of that and have corrected it" now I had these shocks for 2 weeks so I said "how about sending me the shocks that fit" but All I got was F_CK OFF which I got a lot from Contemporary from all the "back ordered parts" , "missing parts" (still waiting) and design and parts that were just plain wrong. So I tried to reem out the wholes and of course ruined the sleeve and rubber and had to come up with new parts to fit. And now of course Koni won't warranty them, Great.
