hey mate, in them picks its hard to say coz i have kings in the back SSL's n the front were pedders, i have since replaced with SSL's in the front and it dropped another 5 or so mm, thats all. yeah mate i didnt replace the shocks, but i have noticed that they bare the monroe symbol on the rear ones so they may have been replaced by the previous owner. as to if they are heavy duty or standard or shorter i do not know. cheers mate, will look nice once its lowered.

yer thnx mate,

whats the go wit the parnhead rod?

go for an adjustable one or just bend the old one?

 

[VS-S-PACK-UTE]

hey mate, yeah i replaced mine with an adjustable one, only cost like 120 or sumthin by memory. coz i have 235's on the rear, the right hand side outer tyre was rubbing the outer edge of the guard and the left side was scrubbin the innards. also u'll have 2 either cut or replace ur bumpstops coz they will be resting on ur diff otherwise. i just cut mine down to suit.

 

[MADDNE33]
