Price is right, but will they fall of at the first corner??

Cant see a brand, but at that price, cant be particularly good.

However, there have been surprises before.

Concerns noted guys, thanks for the quick replies.

What would you suggest on a limited budget??

I'd suggest either a non shagged 2nd hand set of BIG piston billies + springs. OR save up for a bit longer and go for GAZ's

Well first funds go towards driveshaft as cos i ain't going anywhere without them!!!

Been looking at secondhand ones, but cant find any for my amount of money :(

Go for some decent second hand uprated shocks and springs then, probably do nearly as good a job.

Fair enough. Would you say coilovers rear or just uprated springs and shocks??

I'd suggest you pay a tenner, join png and take advantage of the GAZ club member discount!:thumb:
