I personally prefer to take my car to Pedders for all suspension and steering work as that is what they speciaise in. Won't comment on anything else but the fact that above all, they know what they are doing when it comes to your suspension.
Now, that seemed to be a bit of a puff piece for pedders, so i'll say like most other mechanics etc. They still might try to rip you off for some things.
Have you considered fitting the kit yourself and then taking it to pedders or somehwere else for the front and rear (both must be done when rear is done). With VT - VZ's it is a difficult Trailing arm to remove, as the bolts on the outer are difficult to remove due to clearance issues, so I found that the labour charge could be a bit more inflated because of this?
I'm not sure on that though as I haven't seen quotes for other cars...

yeah i considered doing it myself.. i just helped one of my mates put a camber kit in his car... took wayyyyyy to long and it was a lot of hassle... i just want to drive in and drive out. job done heres your money lol

they would only do a two point kit saying a four point was going overboard. just wondering if there was any aftermarket place that does it

THeres the one in Kealba, Malcolm Ct. He pretty good, apparently he designed the kit in the first place, or worked on it, something like that. Should cost no more than $340 fitted, for a 4 point Noltec Kit. Pedders only do a 2 point.

Mate always wondered. Whats the difference between your $165 kit and the $400+ one from Pedders........ Quality?

Same polyurethane material in the bushes. The adjustment method may be different, but with a lot of products, you pay a premium for certain brands just because of the name.
