Nice one Dinx, looks loads better, you dont realise how high these sit as standard until you drop them slightly.   :grin: By the way, it's going to cost you more than £40 to lower it as you will need to have the camber and tracking checked otherwise you'll be forking out for new tyres on the front when you run it for a couple of months.  :undecided:
Title: Re: the 4x4 is no more...
Post by: Dinky on 13 June 2005, 08:22
