- Ve MY10 ute
Hi all,
Ive got a VE SV6 2010 ute with about 250,000km. I bought it with about 80k on the clock with lowered suspension, refitted standard suspension so its about 170k old. im getting some front end rattling as well. mechanic replaced the sway bars at the front and now reckons the struts need to be done. ill be attempting it myself
Ive found a set of standard struts (front and rear) off a ve series 2 v8 ute for $150. the set has done about 30,000km. will the v8 set fit the sv6 ? and its a series 2 so would it fit my series 1? also is it silly to buy second hand struts? if so can you recommend some budget sets? priority would be the front struts but im sure the rear is cooked too. dont need anything fancy, but something softer would be nice. I got rid of the 19inch low profile tyres i had as i ended up with 3 cracked rims and i hated the feeling of the tyres. im running stockies at the moment
thanks
