August 5, 200521 yr #1 hehe today has been a good day! want to drop my ute a good 2' all round and I got a full price last week for new front springs, new leafs in the ass, new nolathane bush kit and everything needed to do it. total price of $760. labour not included.went into local ford dealership and got chatting to the spare parts bloke about things and he mentioned how a xr6 ute was traded a few weeks ago that was dumped on its guts and the new owner wanted the std springs put back in so hes got the old ones ouut the back collecting dust!I had a chat to his boss and the only thing left is the rear leaf springs, everything else has "dissapeared" mysteriously!!I asked how much for the springs, to my surprise "2 cartons of piss will do u mate"!!!so $60 later I got near new king lowered leafs! then went into bursons and ordered sum SSL king front coils, $110. while I was there I bought a full rear leaf spring nolathane bush kit for $45.so I thought todays effort was quite good! ive now got all the gear to lower my ute for a grand total of $215 bit cheaper than the $760 I was quoted for new stuff. just shows, hunting around DEFINATELY pays off!will post pics in a week or 2 when its all fitted, will include before and after pics
