Front Shock Absorbers

[Royal]

Can’t get anything locally except gas shocks. I remember that this was discussed previously on this site, but can’t locate it.

What are and where can I get regular old hydraulic shocks for the front of my VW TDr?

I bought a set from cip1 earlier this year

You can order the Cofap brand from your local NAPA #113413031EK (Line code ATM).
They ship out of Indianapolis.

Thanks guys. I’m on it.

Ended up getting them on eBay. My old (God only knows how old) shocks were binding up. New ones – a much better ride.
I must have fallen asleep: when did gas shocks get so much cheaper than old fashioned oil hydraulic ones? Gas: found some for $20, hydraulics: $60. ???

I don’t remember, since I did not want gas shocks. I put EMPI #9651 in @ $64 from the V-DUBSTORE.com.
