Together with superpro saddle, rear shackle and front eye bushes I installed a few weeks ago, I seemed to have cured the bad axle tramp I was getting. I highly recommend the Bilsteins the car feels a lot nicer in the rear. Will be doing fronts later down the track as well 3 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/67555-fg-ute-axle-tramp/page/9/#findComment-1270889 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might piss off the standard reset leafs and get some new ones, herrod or something Edited 31/07/12 06:01 AM by 4.0T Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/67555-fg-ute-axle-tramp/page/9/#findComment-1273040 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure they were around $550 fitted for rears only. Fronts are around the same price. Pat from wholesale suspension is an advertiser here on the forums give him a bell he can give you a good price for them.
