Does Chiggy do repairs? I know he sells whole shocks, as does Keith Newlammyman Newman (K2 Custom), but I was not aware that Chiggy repaired the shocks.

However, as Stowmarket is only 10 miles up the A14, I might well give MCT a try. I will report back.

Thanks all.

They're a first class outfit. You won't be disappointed.
