It apears to be a HI-LO kit aswell, not just springs that replace the standerd, so i would say it would give a low look if you set it up to yes.


Does anyone else think there long steering arms are a little over priced? im sure i could have something made ALLOT cheaper

fraid not, theyre going on the new toy this week :proud: assuming shifty dont get his mits on them :lol: if anyone needs photos / reference I can stick some pics of the kit up tomorrow :lol:

actually just realised - I only need 2, and I have a set of four - so 2 could be made available if necessary - fast road / race spec with hi/los included and black neoprene locator cup thingys.
