    Front Air Struts Which Brand to Buy

    Anyone have a point of view on whether I should buy Delphi @ $530 each or Dunlop @ $400. (Plus freight) The car is a keeper for me, so looking for long term performance.
    Thanks in advance,
    Peter

    Delphi is there form the factory. Do you want to pay a bit extra for OEM or are you ok with good aftermarket?

    Both are good.

    I used Delphi in mine and had the pair delivered in 4 days from the UK for under $900 for the pair including freight. Just trying to think where I got them from as it wasn't my usual supplier...

    What year is yours? The earlier ones are cheaper than the later ones.

    EDIT - I think I got mine from Paddocks. 215 quid for each plus freight (early model)

    245 quid for each plus freight (late model)

    Ok so here is email of who supplied me ... China and email address is from some one on here (robbin rings a bell)......
    They are exactly the same material etc look the same weigh the same and the only things you dont get are a tiny plastic clip that holds a brake line in place which i zip tied) (could be speed sensor cable though lol i forget) and the gaskets from the top I reused my old ones..... Been running them since this email no problems (about 10,000klms)

    ok so let me see if this is what you are offering
    2x220 for the entire strut so 440
    2x120 for the rear air spring so 240
    + 180 postage for postage to australia
    so 860 delivered to Australia ??
    Is this the best you can do ? As I'm sure you are aware it takes a lot of persuasion for us to convince our customers to buy non Oem parts and as Im sure you are aware nothing convinces them better than price. We are a locally run Landrover specialist recently set up in Brisbane region
