Same mate, I have fk's but they were only about £170 so it's not even worth buying 2nd hand really....... I'd only buy a 2nd hand suspension if it retailed over £600

Sort of, on crappy bumpy roads their horrid but not too bad on maintained roads. The handling is far from epic though. I think I'm gonna get some proper ones soon.....

How you mean? You can't do the rears as the 2wd don't have independent rear suspension nomatter what the brand. Or can it be done?
