King/Bilstein 2" lift - group buy

[Guest Close Guest]

Yep. Sorry your post was clear. My post was not. I am only wanting springs I have good OME Shocks that I would keep.

It might be possible to do this as I was looking to just change my shocks only.

Thanks amts.

I'll just stick with the standard raised springs as I hear/read drivers were happy with this setup with just a bar on the front.

If down the track I need too (after putting a winch & battery) I will put HD on the front, but for now the standards should be fine just with a bar. - please tell me if I'm wrong.

last 2 questions
Can these shocks be rebuilt/serviced down the track if required?
Are these shocks for the Aust market? i.e. comes with Australian warranty


Sorry for all the Q's but I need to ask them.

Cheers

Yes these shocks are rebuildable.

AMTS - yes I am in Adelaide mate. Do the kits for a VX come with the uneven spring or adjustable spring seat or would that be something I'd need to look at separately from the kits your organising?
Having read the install link might not be as difficult as I thought, Im always keen to try most things myself (how else do you learn), but guidance on the install might be something I'd take you up on, always good to lean on someone else's IP. I'll keep the offer in mind, speak to SWMBO about the purchase and go from there.

Cheers
Steve

At the moment, it is for the normal springs only. I'm not sure what the pricing is for the KDSS springs (KTFS-121 and KTFR-121)

I apologise for some of my questions that had been already answered in the O.P - My bad. I had a million things going on while thinking about what to ask.

amts - I have send you an email.

No worries. All good.

Yes I m interested

Noted.

Might be ok depending on the final numbers. $875 for the 4 shocks.
The default circlip position is the bottom groove. I'm currently using Dobinsons on the front with US spec Bilsteins.

If only this came up at the end of the year. I'm keener than mustard, but the bank of spilsy has denied all my attempts at requesting funds...
Could have come in handy over the weekend too...

The bank of spilsy must be a subsidiary to the bank i have been applying at. The bank manager just told me she is cutting off my cash advance feature

So ill have to wait a bit longer.

Maybe if you made more deposits rather than withdrawing all the time........

Where is the fun in that? Unfortunately the withdrawals lately have had little to do with the Prado, and more to do with doctor/dentist bills for my better half...

Also, I'm glad you added the quote...if you read your line on its own I'm sure there's a euphemism in there somewhere...

Hey amts

I need some clarification on which springs to get. I'm getting a TJM T3 winch bar fitting soon (55kg), road safe recover points (2kg), Narva 225 driving lights (5kg) and after this planning on a dual battery (20kg).

Can I get away with the normal King springs or will I need to go the HD version?

I don't want a harsh front end as I do more touring than anything else, but would like to have a max of 50mm lift over factory height.

Thanks for you help

Let me ask the supplier and get back to you.
I've also noticed that the 150 Prado needs a longer rear shock - BE5-A715. So I will need to reconfirm pricing for this part number and the suitability of the BE5-A715 when fitted to the 120 also.

Hey Andrew when is the cut off for this group buy? I'm interested but need to juggle around some cash I would be interested in geting hd springs. Don't want to comit just yet but putting the feelers out there.

Hi AMTS,

Could you give me a cut off date on when you need a confirmation for these? I am pretty close having the MFDA&F giving. The go ahead f,or this purchase.

I have a 120 series with and ARB delux bar, dual battery and will have a winch, (likely a dominator). The rear is mostly empty and when out is a fridge, recovered, full camping and the likes for a family of 4 ( should really get a LC 200)��.

Want the 50mm lift as will be going to 33's for next set of tires.

Thank you
Pierre

Cut off will be end of May so Sunday 31 May. I will need to present the models back to the supplier for those with the 150 as you guys need longer shocks for the rear BE5-A715 vs BE5-A713. It may be possible that to get the price break, that all the rear shocks are changed to the BE5-A715 whether you have a 120 or 150.

I am running Bilstein 5160 at the moment which is slightly longer than the BE5-A715 with no issues.

Hi Andrew.

I will be keen. Perth Metro - 6000 or 6063.

These should suit a Sovereign bar, spotties and dual battery from what I have read. Can anyone confirm this?

Cheers.
