I came across them by accident as I grew up in East Keilor.

Frank did a sterling job on my Fairlane.

Cant recommend them enough.

Hi Pazza,
I got the job done at 'The Suspension Centre' in Kealba.
Now Riding on SSL Kings springs reset all around, Gabriel H/duty self valving shocks, 30mm Whiteline sway bar, complete bush upgrade kit, new sway bar links, Ratchet type camber kit and rolled guards.
I was told that the 30mm sway bar is overkill for my car, but i love it that way. :
The only thing i would change on the setup would be getting fully adjustable rear shocks and I'm still thinking about the adjustable rear sway bar.
Just need a go in someones beast who has that setup.... anyone .....anyone .. : : :

Hi guys, since the last post (#75) the car has had a few changes.

These were taken at Sandown 500 - 2007 when it still had the charcoal XR18's.



The 1st set of SL kings.


And the Standard brakes.


Preparing for the days events.

I then had the wheels polished for the Annual All Ford Day @ Geelong.






I had never spent so much time in cleaning and preparing the car prior to this event.

Yes slowly moving forward Ron.

I then sold the wheels and went back onto the stockies.
The Suspension was next to get some attention.

Jack, love the current look man, so nice and clean. Wheels and stance perfect. Remove the wing and get quads and you're set!

That ORSMT2 looks like a 4wd height compared to yours lol

Also, red goes faster, especially when you're driving!

Yes mate i know how you feel. The model of the wheels are CH-R. Unfortunately in the end I had to go for the 8x18's due to the price and even more unfortunate is that they dont make them anymore.

Here are a couple form more recent events.

Thanks buddy. I still have some more ideas that i would like to do but it's only a matter of time and of the course the mula $$.
Yours is coming up a treat too and im sure the trip to Adelaide certainly helped run it in good and proper.

I have been thinking, should I get the chrome mirror scalps or leave them as they are?
Any comments appreciated.
