yea i've orderd those ones for £52. where in north wales are you from mate?

yep, i`ve fitted them now too, did exactly what it said on the box. well worth the price.. if i could have afforded uprated dampers too i would have done that but cash wernt permitting at the time.. :tongue:
bargain in my opinion!. i doubt you`ll find springs cheaper.

Did you fit them yourself mate?? easy job??
The day you see me in a diesel is the day there is no more petrol left :D

easiest suspension job i have ever done to be honest..
you need a 7mm allen key ( which i didnt have) and a suitible swan neck spanner (which i didnt bother using).
i just used the impact wrench to undo the front top nuts and undid the bottom pinch bolt with the conventional ring spanner and breaker bar.
 the rears were simple as abc.. just undid the bottom bolts on both sides whilst supporting the weight of the axle with a jack (makes it easy to remove the bolts ) once both bolts are out, remove the jack and the axle will drop and you can remove the springs..
