The standard shockers are made by KYB (KAYABA) but are not for sale as aftermarket other than from Mitsubishi.

However after a lot of searching if found out the following.

Rear shocks are the same as the colt. KYB Part no 341140
Found out the following about the fronts from a contact in KYB,
The front shock off a VOLVO S40 are being sold as aftermarket for the FTO. The part numbers are as follows.

334174 and 334175
I have fitted these and have had no problems
