Looking at getting new shocks and springs in a wk or so, any good lower of the range kits out there? Got about 200/250 to spend.

Thanks

I no it's been covered but was not sure if there are any new kits out that haven't been covered.

X4mgs will no doubt pipe up and recommend the same thing he always does. If its a new kit link what you have found so people can have a look.

Very doubtful anyone will start manufacturing a new kit for such an old car

You haven't stated if you will be looking to lower the car at all ?

Boge and eibach is the most common lower end combo for shock n springs !

Don't forget to factor in all new top mounts as a minimum

And also a full front end re-alignment !
