Steve,

Are you looking for new?

If you are look on eBay under Mazda 626GE, as they are the same as a Ford Probe, most are in Europe or surrounding countries, and prices are not too bad.

Your other option is RockAutos in the US, they have lots of choice, but you need to factor in delivery costs and import duty, however sometimes they can still be cheaper

Just jumping on this thread. I'm looking to get some lowering springs and shock absorbers for the Probe and hitting a bit of a block with some of the individual prices being over £100 each per shock and fairly rare. I have seen some 626 Mk VI hatchback shocks that are significantly cheaper but keen to know exactly what will fit. Any advice like OEM code numbers or links to say relevant Monroe shocks and springs would be extremely helpful here!

Once again, appreciate all the support of the group!

Nigel (MrBulldog) had a set of pre-lowered shocks on his breaker. I was looking at them but there was a bit too much surface rust for me so I passed. He may still have them if you're interested.
