    hi guys found this kit on ebay and was wondering if any1 has any idea about these items , u no quality , price , general anything about them Kit Consists of

    4 x 2" lowered DOBINSON brand coils.

    2 x KYB Excel-G Twin Tube Gas front struts.

    2 x KYB Excel-G Twin Tube Gas Rear shocks. the set of 4 springs r 215 bucks by them selves so i guess these shocks must b good if they make up the other 405 dollars of the price cause this whole package is 620 dollars on ebay cheers for any advice muz

    KYB's are obviously very good, but Dobinson are a lesser known quantity. Dobinson roll springs for some very well known *brand* springs, and are a good thing. Definitely better than Kings, and on the same level as lovells for example. The $405 is a bit steep for the KYBs, but then its made up as that's a fairly decent price on the Dobinson.

    2" is a big drop, are you chasing performance or looks? Either way Dobinson are a good thing, just make sure you have good bump stops if you're going to go the 2" drop.
