Anyone knows where I could get shock absorbers for a Mazda Familia...

Have searched Dar-es salaam road extensively but no chance...

Try Oriel on Mombasa rd,next to the subaru place,opposite Panari/vitafoam.

I had a problem with shocks and found that they have a wider range of products than almost any other stockist in town,plus their prices were very good at the time,there was an xmas offer! I got the shocks at a quarter of the price of GM!!

advise also on Premio springs pipo...I'm finding Robs Magic one's too expensive.

They are next to the Subaru showroom (for new cars) - On your left just after the Embakasi/nakumatt/cabanas junction as you make your way to the city centre.

Their numbers are 554186 or 534550.

I can vouch for them,I got Monroe shocks for my forester and the job was damn good.

On your way to town from GM or Cabanas,just past Bobmil and opposite vitafoam,the compound also has the subaru showroom,and some skodas and audis....but those guys look like the closed down.

Oriel is very busy and they sell Monroe shocks. These are good moreso if you get the gas types. I have used their shocks and recommended hundreds there and none is dissapointed by their shocks. So go there and try get them to fit also. They can offer a small discount if u bargain hard.

For anyone with bigger cars,maybe autoexpress with their Bilstein shocks might be a better option. Autoexpress are just ahead of the oriel place still on your way to town,opposite vision plaza,just after MPPS.

Best wishes!
