I've looked all over their website and found no fitted kits, only bushes?

I replaced the Tie Rod ends and sway bar links - all knocks gone, only squeaks remain :) All the ball joints were flogged in them.

Cheers mate! Those whiteline control arms are what I'm after so I can bolt them straight in!

I done a near on 2000km drive from Melbourne up to Brisbane last week and the old girl averaged 10.5L/100km on 98ron sitting on 110km/h (calculated with fuel put in vs trip kms) super stoked.

The falcon still lives! I bought myself a new Navara NP300 in December and have left the ute in the shed since.

Last month I got the diff checked out by a nice local workshop and they found it had two bent axles, buggered bearings, rubbing of the internals and the inside of the housing as well as a few other average things. Ended up welding the tubes to the center housing too. It never felt right since I had it built in 2012. Happy to report it feels like a new car.
