Just wondering if I should lower my ute or not. stock at the moment so it's sittting pretty high. kean to lower it but not spend heaps of coin and wasn't sure about resale. if it's lowered it might steer tradies etc away because they might not be able to carry bigger loads as it might scrap?

please let me know where I should go for a good price and and what you think about the resale issue if it is one.

Im in perth, looking for somewhere probably around osbourne park area.

cheers.

Swany.

Id speak to the guys at WA suspensions... Funny enough, they are based in Osborne Park.

Iv had my suspension done there at a reasonable price and it looks great! My quote with these guys was cheaper than any of the couple of pedders I went to and Wilkinsons Suspension and they also came very well recommended.

Alternatively, PM Adrian6T. He had his Tornado done not too long ago by a guy in Balcatta (cannot remember the finer details) that he can put you onto... Fitted full bilsteins for him at a good price too.

That should keep you busy, get a couple quotes and take it from there.

Let us know how ya go!

The owner is Arnie and tell him Adrian sent you. He is the best in the bussiness.

I have SL kings in the front and reset rears with Bilstein Shocks.

Its a little lower now since I have a hard cover on the back now and I love it.

Think the nado's are awesome in silver!

Silver has got to be the best colour mate. Yours looks great too.

I should realy get off my bum and post up some of mine to - got it lowered on super lows and 1.5 inch in the rear... looks wicked - exhaust scrapes abit if I'm not careful. I've pulled a horse float and had 10 sheets of jib on the back since then ... no problems, hoping it'll settle abit more still though lol

SL kings on the front and the rears were re-set. The ride is 100x better then stock but is mainly due the the bilstien shocks I had fitted as well.

Hey guys, I've got a BF MKII 2007 UTE. Standard height, looking to lower...

Just wondering how they do the rear - re-set the leafs? :w00t2:

What sort of prices we talking bout? And how are the Bilstien Shocks and the rest of the fruit on ride comfort?

Cheers
