    Default Cheapest place to buy shock and spring sets.

    Looking to buy a set of ssl's with shockers. Being 17 i don't have a lot of money on hand. Heard you can get the sets for around $600ish bucks. Wheres the best place to buy them online?

    Friends that are in companies locally haha. But in all seriousness, cheapest doesn't always mean it's going to be good. Spring set front and rear could set you back $300, then shortened shockers could be $200-$300each, but if you buy them off ebay second hand or even new, you'll be right. Just make sure you get a known brand so you don't have to worry about the quality.. Unless it's really been used.

    Yeah sorry about that. I posted it in the other general then seen there was bugger all threads in there so gathered it doesn't get used much so decided it would be better in here.

    Munroe are what alot of people recommend for pricey budgets. They're not the BEST shock, but they're value for money.

    I'm getting that exact set for my car, if that helps you. Just i'll be getting a 2 Point camber kit aswell.

    They're only SL's though, not SSL or SSSL. On ebay i've only seen Ultra (SSL) and SL, no super ultras.

    With that kit, it will slightly hug the rear wheel. Slightly. That's what it was like on my ute though, but it was low enough for it.

    For the current car i was gunna do SL front and SSL rear, but if it's easier i might just go SSL all around.

    I'm pretty sure they are, because there is Super lows, Ultra Lows and Super Ultra lows, i don't think they'd call SSL a Super super low. O.o.

    I could be wrong, but i'm pretty sure they're SSL's.

    Anyone correct me if i'm wrong, or tell me if i'm correct if you're sure.
