My suspension has been on its way out for a long time now, so today I eventually got around to buying the replacement bits!
A set of front and rear shortened, uprated Bilstein shocks/inserts.
New -40mm front springs.
New wishbones. (arms, bushes, balljoints)
New drop links.
Gonna be a busy weekend

Yeah, GMC springs.. I cant remember how much it cost to be honest
I know The special offer price wasnt available for me as they'd just sold the last of the bulk ordered kit... apparently
Probs about £350 I think?

Im hoping the new 40mm springs will raise the car quite a bit compared to the old 40mm springs
Thats my plan
