Hi Chuck, I know the new ones are $500 each. I know the 123s can be rebuilt. I am hoping there is a rebuild option for the 124. Shock Absorber; Rear Left/Right; Hydropneumatic Self-Leveling is the book jargon. I have heard them referred to as shocks and as struts. I don't care what anyone wants to call them, I just hope I don't have to shell out $1000 (plus the other parts) to get this car running. Has anyone out there got a Shock Absorber; Hydropneumatic Self-Leveling, that you could look at to see if it comes apart? Loren

What I've chased shows the following: Shock Absorber; Rear Left/Right; Hydropneumatic Self-Leveling ---- They ain't cheap! There are struts on the front only..... Hope this helps...
