s man,
got mine 4 shocks n springs for the gen2crv at 28k. mas softer yung ride than the oem 4x2 gen2 crv.

i dont think may avail na shocks na rancho, OME for the gen2 CRV, even for the gen 1 here sa phils.

KCboy,
ok na rin yan ah.. anong brand ng shocks yun for Gen2? saka anong springs?

arb diba may shop ka? how much aabutin replace shocks ng gen 1 CRV. very important saakin ang soft ride.

supierman malapit lang ako sa fusion r, may kakilala ka ba dun? and ddo they have oem shocks?

PROMDIBOY,
Si Auto Xer andun sa Fusion R

kilala sya dito sa tsikot. 1000 singil sa shocks install (250 per shock). meron Lifter sa fusin R and a spring compressor that they use to safely dismantle the shock assembly.

Pag palit ka ng shock sabay mo na rin palitan top shock rubber mounts.

sa akin kase palitin na yun taas na kase mileage ko (130t km hehe) pero pag ok pa yung rubber di pa kailangan palitan. Inabot din ako around 1800+ for all those shock mount rubbers.
Front shock assembly:

*yung nasa pic sa taas labeled as #6 yung rubber mounts

Rear shock:

*2nd pic yung labeled as #2 naman

Wala OEM shocks nga lang sa Fusion R

yep the trade off in having Bilsteins installed mawawala yung comfortable ride feel na well known for the Gen1 V.

here's a quote from HondaCR-V.org (sayang nabasa ko lang itong post sa HondaCR-V.org nung nakabili na ako ng bilstein hehe..)

In my experience ganyan din.. when negotiating speedbumps tumatalbog ngayon yung likod ng Gen1 ko parang Gen2 CRV hehe

*edit
dagdag lang.. if you're going to get OEM shocks or KYB.. wala pa kasama bumpstops yun so you need to get those too. sa Bilstein may kasama na Bumpstops

The shops is my friends, sa shocks lang kami partner. Team Centerline Car Audio and Acc. But its in the province.

May OME avail but not yet in stock, your option if you want to change it now would be Bilsteins, OEM, and maybe KYB. Bilsteins come with adjustable ride height, you can lower/lift your ride without the need to change springs. Nasa 30k plus ang set.

supierman thanks for the info very helpful, I guess worth it na talaga yung oem shocks sa casa kahit sobrang mahal. yan na siguro kukunin ko. your right the CRV gen1 is known for its comfortable ride.

OEM na!

may nabasa ako dati may nagpost dito nung tinaas yung CRV niya ng casa sa liffter natanggal yung shocks. parehong pareho kami nung inakyat sa lifter bumigay yung shocks. Cant find tthat theread. I wonder kung anong pinili niya.

OEM shocks talaga mas soft ang ride, right now i'm using an OEM shocks in front, KYB sa likod. Stiff ang likod, soft ang harap. Mas mura ata bumili ng OEM shocks sa mga authorized Honda parts dealer sa labas eh. I remember para sa accord, OEM shocks is P4000+ each lang, compared sa casa almost 6000 each. accord yun ha, mas mura pa pag civic or crv siguro.

magkano ba usually yung OEM shocks ng gen1 crv? advisable bang bumili ng japan replacements? Pina refill ko sa zee carplus yung shocks ng CRV ko last summer tapos ngayon umiingay na ulit. May warranty pa siya kaso naisip ko quick fix nanaman ang mangyayari dito, might as well replace the whole thing. Saang shop ba sa banawe ang merong murang honda parts, ang suki ko lang kasi sa banawe mitsubishi eh.
