View Full Version : BOGE brand shock absorbers : Good/Bad/Ugly?
Whilst I had the wheels off the TS recently, I noticed it had shock absorbers branded 'BOGE Automatic'. Has anyone heard of this brand before and are they good quality or cheap & nasty?
I think the car rides very well and have no complaints.
Thanks

Cool, glad to know I have good shocks!

Are Boge's more expensive than the Monroe and similar brands?

Yes they are more expensive, in the upper price range, before you hit adjustables...
They would be considered a very nice upgrade, more proof the old man loved his Magna before you picked it up......

I have Boge's with King SP lows and the ride quality is excellent! Although it could do with a bit more rebound damping at the front... Just to suit my tastes.

These used to be std equipment on the older M series Beemers as well as many other German cars
Have not seen them for years but they used to crap all over many of the other out there
I would be very keen if you could get the part numbers off these sometime

I got the shocks off Phillcom. I don't have the part number handy. Maybe give them a call? I know he had a good deal going when i got mine.
