Pro comp ES 3000 help please

[stratie]

Hi guy's,  Just got a set of ES 3000 shock's for the landy,  two  for the rear and two for the front.
How do i know what's what?? it say's nothing on the box :?  
Hobbit?? Anyone??

If it's a disco the rears (top) have a "loop" whereas the fronts have two threads top and bottom.

There for a lightweight mate, and all 4 look the same  :?

[muddysteve]

That's just it mate, i dont know. Been told the rear shocks should be a bit stiffer than the front, not that i can tell.
I maybe having a blonde moment :lol:

[Wanderer]

Ah right lightweight....
I was looking around Kev's the other day and I'd say they were the same but someone had pinched the front ones :)
It's a long story :)

[Wanderer]

Just spoke to Kev for you and he says he doesn't think there's any difference.

Hiya mate, Like Ed said, I always thought they were the same, the springs are a different matter :?

If you bought them as a set and they are the same part number logically i'd say it dont matter

Probably no help......Is there no number stamped in the metal (there is on the ones I just bought) - if there is and all have the same number, doesn't matter what goes where. Didn't realise lwts were different - fronts on Series ones are shorter.

when i fitted pro comp 9000 on my series3 the front and rears are different part No.s, rom memory the rear shocks are longer!! hope this helps, regards Neil....

[LandRoger]

there is a part no - on the flip lid of the box ,  if all 4 the same then it makes no differance .

[stratie]

Hi guy's, me again  :oops:  
Box number 1 and 2 say front
Box number 2 and 3 say rear
The thing is the shock's are on the work bench, and i dont know what shock came from what box...double  :oops:  :oops:
Some one out there must have Es 3000's  fitted to a landy.
Anyone?

[stratie]

Hello  :D
On two of the shock's the number is.....c024y1
The other 2 shock's are....c205x1  and  c063x2

[stratie]

Yay i've got it sorted, well allmost  :lol:
Part number starting 318 are the front shock's, they allso both share the same code (C024Y1)  sorted.
Part number starting 321 are the rear shock's, but they have different code's (C205X1 and C063X2) so im guessing one is the O/S and the other is the N/S.
Now if i can sus that out im laughing  :D

[hobbit]

Bet you wish you had just dropped them on now, talk about headache

[stratie]

I'll get there in the end mate
