Re: ARB suspension

If your talking OME stuff, I think pricing is around AUD $1280 for the parts + $300ish fitting from the ARB dealer.
Cheers

Hi Pambs,

Yep, around $1,300 + fitting.

Hey, the first Cyprus member I have noticed, Welcolme.

I did some of my early 4WD'ing there when I was posted with the UN for a couple of years in the early 80's......patrolled the buffer zone in the old English series III Landrovers (painted white with a big red flying kangaroo on the side), still think it is one of the most beautifull countries I have visited, and great 4 wheel driving. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Re: ARB suspension

hey thanks for the welcome! seems like you had a lot of fun!

i have also received a quote for the bilstein shocks, but from what i understood they dont make coils. Are the original ones ok?

If you're happy with the standard height & load carrying capacity springs then yes, however you can get springs from various manufacturers in Australia to suit your particular requirements. Search the threads & you'll find plenty of info.

Re: ARB suspension

Hi Pambs,

I have the Lovel springs and bilstein shock setup like most on the forum, which I think is ideal..... 50mm lift and far better articulation and keeps its road manners.

Re: ARB suspension

......I also have Polyairs, which as you can see keeps everything beautifully level even when loaded to the hilt.
