(Home) TEMS shocks

Has anyone ever bought new TEMS shocks for their bus and noticed any difference ? I reckon the back end of my Hiace Wagon is getting even more wolly than before but there is no sign of any leaks from the shocks. I've replaced many of the bushed already so can't be a problem there.

Thing is at £110+vat each ! It's quite a bit of wedge to shell out to find they are OK.

The mileage is about 85,000 miles

Cheers Jason

Yes, I replaced the front TEMS dampers on my Masterace and attended to all the bushes etc. No great improvement I'm afraid. I did check the operation of the old and new dampers, and the new ones seemed marginally stiffer but, in my opinion, not worth the £250 I shelled out.

Thanks John, I'll think twice about changing them.
