Got bored with the wagon, time to give the Hatch some TLC.

Replacing the original 195K SACHS shocks with some KYB Excel-G 349084 x 2 (wagons use same)

I can't remember the last time I came across single action Gas shocks but my oh my, they were stuffed.

rebound yes, compression virtually nil, and why I ended up with damaged scalloped tyres in the left rear.

Hmmm, how nice it feels. No more clunks or knocks from the rear. I was thinking I had bad bushings and links.
