where are you?

king springs + kyb shocks will cost you ~$800 for the parts, and fit them yourself you bum Smile

konis will obviously be a bit more expensive.
if you are going to get a place to fit them, check what theyre charging you for parts - places will charge from $300-$400 for the springs, which is a pretty big difference! (expect around $350, or a little more)

I rang whiteline last week for this, they were asking $500 for kyb are noraml gas shocks and $900 for konis, konis are adjustable just ring whiteline, go to allsprings in liverpool for the springs though there cheaper and they have sprinter springs of the shelf ( I think)

KYB shocks: about $150 each. TOTAL = $600
King springs: about $70 each. TOTAL = $280
brisbane prices.
as draven said - fit them yourself. Purchase spring clamps, they're worth it.

BTW: The place where i bought my springs wanted $250 to fit them. (2hrs work by hand, 1 hrs work with rattle gun). I WISH I GOT PAID $250 A FRIGGAN HOUR!!!!.

I had Koni adjustables all-round on mine with king springs, until I realised that the rears were shocks for a raised ride, not lowered. I pissed off the rear springs with the shocks (which are for sale), and I had AllSprings design a new rear end. I had some custom linear springs made (their brand, Jumbo's), and had some KYB gas shocks put in as well.

Originally the entire suspension system was around $1300 for all four corners when it had all Koni's and King's. Another $145 for new rear springs and $130 for rear KYB shocks, which were designed for a Commonwhore Wagon. Confused Seems to work alright..
