Welcome to AZ mate.

I suggest putting up a build thread in the rigs section with a bit of a run down of your car eg: vitara, sierra, jimny etc

[eldo]

welcome to AZ nectre2. those prices sound ok, if they have stock.

[Shansh]

welcome to AZ mate, you will find people here are happy to help and very generous with knowledge and patient as f*#k wil noob questions, trust me i have asked a few

[Nectre2]

Thanks guys umm how do i move this in build thread section?

[Choppy]

yeah prices are good, i payed 111 each for my rears and they wanted about the same for fronts so all evens out. to about 520 together

Just make a new thread in the rigs section.

[Nectre2]

Yeah the guy said that they are 40mm higher,i thought it was 2"lift? and he said for my model 1991 1.3 soft top they don't make Dakar leafs for it?

[taszook]

think i paid 95 fronts and 105 rears? worked out to about 100 each and that was in april. then got OME shocks also, were about 90 each. was a 40mm lift but gave me a bit over 60mm from memory

[appsie]

i paid 79 fronts each and 95 rears for mine from memory.then some new bushes etc but mine were at a small discount. and commy,hilux shocks.makes for a cheap lift but i dont think the commy,hiace/lux shocks are ideal

[Nectre2]

Thanks for the help guys really appreciate it i hope i will have these springs soon, as i'm bit low on the funds i going to stick with the commo/hiace shock combo.

I reckon thats a great idea mate, start simple then adjust ya mods to suit ya driving as ya go.

from memory the ome shocks were around 50 each so i personally wouldnt buy commo/hiace shocks as id say they are around the same coin?
my ome springs were under a hungie each.

My OME rear shocks actually limit travel with my 40mm lift. I reckon go with the commo/hiace your talking about. I had them all round until I shagged a rear and threw the OME shocks in instead. Still flexes nice though. Just not quite as far.

back on the 11/4/2008 i paid

fronts $88.18 each + gst
rears $97.27 each + gst

if you haven't ordered them yet, maybe have a look into doing a RUF. Not a hard mod, with great results, plenty of tech up online about it and it means you will only need to buy two rear springs.

That sounds about right. Was happy with my OME, Commodore, Hilux setup until one of my rear springs bent like a banana. They've only been in a year and a half, and I hav'nt really done any extreme 4wding. I'm tossing up wether to take it up with ARB even though they're 6 months out of warranty or fint in a differant brand of rear springs.

just ordered rears for 95 each...

[Nectre2]
