fellas i need your opinion on this suspension kit i was searching on ebay and came upon this sellers item..i asked him if he sold em as a package and heres what he told me i get a set of 4 superlow springs and set of 4 shortened struts for $510 the link folowed is to the struts http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270076840339&sspagename=ADME:B:AAQ:AU:1 the brand name is "ULTRARIDE"...would you say its a set of decent/good suspension kit...? or is a case of you get what u pay for.?..how much would a set of kingsprings or and lovells cost me? 4 springs 4 shocks?
As you have a VS that kit is useless as you can't jus buy strut inserts for the VS its only the models beforehand, you actually need complete new struts which are more expensive. I purchased my 4 king springs super lows and 2 monroe gt gas shortened shocks and the mathcing struts for $590 all up including delivery.
i am fully aware that will not suit my vehicle.. i was just refering to the 'brand' not the autual model for the suitable vehicle. are you saying that you cant change the shock insert within the autual strut in the front, meaning id have to purchase new struts?? jon z how low is the front of ur car from tyre to guard? is it necessary to change the struts if i wanna drop it at most 2inches? btw where did u order yours from??
lol anyway i would probably recommend gettin shortened struts and shocks if ur lowering it that much, a fair few ppl claim its fine without em but pretty much its a load of bs. It will sit a lot nicer, handle like it should and your springs won't fall out of become loose in their insulators/mounts when ur jackin the car up. I'll pm the place where i bought em from not allowed to 'advertise' anymore on the forums.
I just bought King Springs Superlows, 2 shortened monroe gt gas shocks, and monroe gt struts to suit from a place down here in vic for $480...never heard of the brand name Ultraride before, i'd be a bit weary..prefer to stick to names u know!
