For what it's worth, we currently use Gabriels in current vehicle
production... and they are junk. Monroes are not much better (failure
rates are in the 20-40,000 mile range for both). Koni will offer us a
300,000 mile warranty, at a considerably higher price. Says something
about the quality of their shock absorber. The Konis I have seen for
Triumph applications have a 3-position adjustable setting, and that
might be enough for occasional hard driving. I bought Spax shocks for
the GT6 long-term project because of the greater rate of adjustability,
but cannot assess their useful life or their performance, since the car
is not yet running. And, purchased through a UK source, the cost was
quite reasonable.
Cheers.
