shockers arrived today! Pretty things, hopefully get em on tomorrow evening - and the steering idler/ torsion bars too, so should make a huge difference to handling and generally going where I want instead of random wanderings across both lanes.

yes I know its taken as long as walking to the moon to get them on , but ......they`re on andthe verdict is - ( you`ll have to wait while I go the garage to get them - having the steering idler done, filters and oil done and all ma nipples greased (not mine kev, before we go there)...

They from TBR or have you found somewhere cheaper...?
indeed Colin! these came direct from the importer through Gwyn Davies 4x4 (comes up on google even though he`s in wales) very helpful guy, £98 each plus £30 postage
I now have two inchs higher at the front (bumper supported) and sooooo much better to drive - sits much nicer at rest - more level
