HELP - Monoshock xt 660 z 2009 for offroad??
 
Hi there,

Got a problem and really hope to find some help here! :(

I need to order a new rearsuspension for someone who is on the way in Mongolia. I tried to get a Wilbers Monoshock from Germany, but they actually said, I can only get one there, which has 20mm less ''Hub'' (don't know what you call this, ''hoisting capacity'' or ''lift''?) than the original one and is not meant for offroad at all.

Does anybody know, where else I could get one for offroad as quick as possible?
(I cannot reach the guys cause they are on a stretch completely without connection, but I should order and send it quick, so they are not stuck for too long in Ulaan Baatar...)

Thanks so much in advance!!!

KEDO - Performance Products have wilbers shocks, in lot of different configurations, they can be set ud to your specifications (weight, tarmac/offroad ect)

I've got one I bought secondhand which works fine offroad, so dunno what the thats all about :confused1:

Hello,
thanks for the replies!
It actually solved itself, I managed to contact them today after all and they managed to refill it, so it works again good enough.

Yes, that's what I thought with wilbers, too, in the catalogue it looks like you have all the options, but actually not for that model. Then again I also don't know if these 20mm less lift really have much influence on how it drives offroad. At least they said themselves it wouldn't work well for offroad.

Heard about Öhlins and Sachs too, but now since I don't need to order one anymore...

Thanks anyway!
Best,

Hanne
