96 ultima cosworth estate rear shockers, does any one know parts numbers ? I need two and cant find any, is it possible to fit standard ones to the estate ? ive looked on flee bay and some that are listed as fitting show pic's with the wrong fitting on the top , mine have a long threaded shaft that the rubbers go over with a securing nut on top , but all I'm finding is the ring with a rubber bushing in the centre.

If it helps I fitted the Monroe ones to my 2.0ltr estate and have had no problems whatsoever.
As is mentioned in the links which Tompion has put up to remove the old shocks requires the sub frame to be lowered as they are too big to drop out through the spring.
The Monroe ones will pass through should you ever need to replace them.
A quick Google on the part numbers shows both for around the £50 mark for a pair.

Sierra estate ones fit and seem fine, on my estate at least but are not self levellers.
Big thread on here somewhere, make sure the bottom mounting has the right foramt and the shocker will not come down and out but must be removed from the top.
