    How much would it cost to get these installed? And not get ripped off

    From memory for springs & Shocks its around $300-400ish? Inc allignment - Correct me if im wrong :).

    Pedders quoted me $1400 for them.. But then another guy quoted me $1000 for full job.. But i figure buy it off ebay is a lot cheaper

    Hmm, might make a few calls. See what's cheaper.

    Im looking at this kit for my vx clubby, he said it Will drop 50mm ang improve handling dramatically. looks the goods, i was quoted 900-990 for same gear from repco auto one etc. And dont be afraid to have a go fitting them yaself! So much more satisfying getting ya hands dirty and saving a bundle too. Cheers

    Yeah thanks Guys, I will order a pair in the next month and get them fitted and let them know how they go :)

    @SlvR8
    I like those sorts of jobs too but not sure how i would go with the alignment etc. Might leave them with the professionals ;)
