This is the 2nd thread about GTS shocks this week, unless it's the same set of shocks?!?

Looks like someone is gonna have to remove a shock and measure the bushes (holes).
I reckon they'll be a stock item for a poly-bush manufacturer...

<Shouts louder from the back> Oh no its not! Your contract of sale is with GTS. If there is a manufacturing fault then it is the company that
made them who is at fault. However if GTS do not deal with it then they are at fault because the contract of sale is with them.
At least give GTS a chance to make it right before you go blaming them for things that have nothing to do with them.....If no joy then slate them all
you like...Oli.

There is a difference between being responsible for something and being at fault.
GTS should replace unsatisfactory goods supplied by them, but it's not their fault, as resellers, that the goods are unsatisfactory.

5 years on???? I wouldn't think so!
I would have thought it would be easy enough to whip the end off & slip a PU or rubber replacement on the shocker shaft - just be careful of
damaging the shaft. You will damage it, just make sure the damage is right up at the top end & therefore prevented from damaging the seals by the
new bump stop!
