He's been looking at these: ProComp suspension kit.
Does this sound like a good deal to anyone else? _________________ Alan

There does not seem to be many suppliers of leaf springs anymore quite a few hours on the phone ringing people only to be told they dont and cant get any except LLama 4x4 but I think there are a bit expensive but thanks to me and my wife I know have 4 Iron man leaf springs on the way and all new U bolts , They came from a company called
West Coast Off Road Centre - Tel 01704 229 014. They were £44 + vat each for the front and £50 + vat each for the rear, I thought this was a pretty good price. I will let you know what they are like the are being delivered on Friday and hopefully I will fit them on Sunday. |
