Got all the gear to throw the springs and shocks in tomorrow apart from car stands... I'll duck up to Supercheap in the morning to get a pair. I'll get some pics along the way and put up a thread bout swapping the springs and shocks in the garage.

Springs and shocks are in. Bloody fiddly job, probably spent double the usual amount of time to do them. End result is good so far, the back scrubs a fair bit but its going in tomorrow for a service and wheel alignment so I'll see if they can adjust it to reduce the scrubbing. Cant fit my finger in between the rear tyre and guard, front is all good. If not I'll have to get the guards rolled. Also discovered a shredded AC belt, not sure how long its been dead for cause its been a while since I've had to use the AC. I'll throw some pics up when I can.

Cheers mate. My missus just picked it up from Holden. They couldnt do the wheel alignment cause they said its too low. She's taking it to a local shop after lunch to get them to have a look. Holden also said it has a leak around the sump and needs a new gasket, for $790. I've never seen any oil drops in my garage where its always parked so not sure whats going on there. Never had a low oil light come on either. They also said my heater hoses are leaking, that'll be another $250 odd. Gotta love dealerships.
