that was a long time ago though Jet, I think they have changed to progressive rate springs now? I am getting them to take the springs out to check if they are hd, and to measure for sag, as the knocking makes it a not very nice car to drive at the moment. I am away on holidays at the moment though, so will try to get it sorted out next week.

I would stick with std bars with the Pedders. I have a 31mm front bar and the ride at time is harsh, I have been contemplation trying a standard bar as I think it would improve the front end. Its quite easy too get the front end too push with th 31mm bar.

If you wanna swap your front bar out for mine to give it a run, I'd like to see how a 31mm bar feels.

when I was in pedders the other day getting some info on the XA's the guy showed me for the b series falcons are 12kg as supplied but you could request ne where from 8-12kg with your preference in height.

Maybe the FG's are different?

apparently all of the fg's have the heavy duty (12kg) springs as standard in the kit now, although I could have an old kit. Still have to wait til I get back to Melbourne to get mine checked out.

What was the verdict mate?

Looking at getting some for my FG, but don't want to waste my money on a product with faults.

Hey mate, I ended up getting them replaced, all good. Since then I have blown a shock though, which was also covered under warranty, but it is getting annoying.

Be aware though that my case is fairly unique; I am travelling 1000km's a week on some of victoria's most used and least well kept roads, and I am running the height at the top of the tyre front and rear. Granted, I have made a concious decision about how I would like my car to look and handle, but I would expect this setup to handle anything australian roads can throw at it.

In saying that I would probably look at other options were I to do it again, with tein's being not alot further in price for a great product.
