wanted rear/set shocks

[mazdarati]

Hey hey. So failed nct on rear shocks. I knew the nearside rear was shot as I had noticed it weeping when I was changing out my brakes. Wondering if anyone has something suitable lying around the shed. I'm pretty sure my shocks are standard mx1 with some lowering springs installed when it was still in Japan. Anyone able to advise me how to tell this? I'm also wondering I shocks from a mk2/2.5 will fit a mk1?

We have some and no mk2/2.5 will not fit without raising it up about 50mm higher. 086 8226506

Mk 2 will fit but as Autocheck said will fit but raise it. Mk2.5 will definitely raise it more.

I have mk2 on mine, bought from Autocheck, and have to say they ride very well if you can live with the height but I also hear the springs can be cut down because of their shape.
