[Trayner]

Wow car drivers soo much better. Not amazing but really good for an old car.
Best thing is how much better it sits now height wise, looks level I love it!
Pics coming soon I promise!!

Got my old front SL springs for sale now if anyones interested.


EDIT:

Thinking about some different exhaust tips, since I have to replace the mufflers cos they got smashed in :whistling:
Thoughts? Maybe 2 1/2" twins, or dumps even?

get the dumps they looked mad when i had them on the car , wish the new exhaust had them lol

Dunno i've always like the twin chromies better. Only got 2 1/4" tips atm 2 1/2" would look heaps better I reckon.

Fair bit better, not as good as I was expecting to. You don't feel the chassis twist every time you hit a bump though.
Definitely a major improvement, steering is a lot tighter but that's likely from the strut top bearings and link pins.

Heaps worth it.
