    Default Suspension done today,

    After a year of the parts sitting in my loft and hall it all got done today,

    All 4 shocks (bilstein B4),
    Eibach Proline Springs (-30mm),
    Both strut bearings,
    Front drop links and ARB bushes.

    How many miles before the springs settle?

    Mechanics report,
    One front spring broken, rear arbs shot and one drop link knackered

    Have you made plans for it yet? If not, i'd recommend acr tyres over in yoker. £62 for a full set-up. Car handles like it's on rails now
