Hey mate, still havent fitted them. No time/cbf lol. Having a good think about the coil/leaf setup and maybe going to use parts of the leaves ive already got instead... Keep u posted

 

[Peteyen86]

Hey buddy, dont spose you have fitted these yet. Really think i might buy a set and some new shocks, longer ones. I think my Bilstein (2" lift ones) are limiting my travel.

Cheers Pete

Hey mate, no they are still sitting in the garage lol
I am thinking i may not even fit them, cos i really want to do the coil over leaf thing,
And that would mean removing a couple of leaves, so probly a bit of a waste doing that to brand new springs.
I may see if i can sell them and go with the old ones.

Cheers, James

Haha.

Think ill just buy a set. They look like a better designed spring compared to the others that all look the same. Need longer shocks to.

Yeah they definatly look well made!
Id try n sell my set to you but i think postage would be a killer.

What shocks are u looking at?, cos i will be looking for longer than 2" lift shocks once i do the coil mod

Yeah i thought about that, but postage from one side to the other would be a killer i think.

Looking at Bilstein 5100 from 4x4parts.com in the US. Emailing them at the moment to find out what i need. They sell them for 78 bucks each. Just a little cheaper then Aus.

I started another thread all about longer rear shocks. Been a few people suggest hilux shocks. One bloke is running them, trying to find out closed and open length required.

Oh yeah maybe some hilux shocks would be the go, nice n easy to find!
May aswell check the postage out if ur interested, never know it could be not too much and i dont expect to sell them for what i paid

 

[Peteyen86]

Noworries,

Check out postage, might as well. Might have to wait until next pay now though, buying a new pedestal drill tonight..lol. Get us a quote and we can go from there. Thanks.

Cheers
