Cheers for the detailed explaination Brett.
So if someone comes to you with a ute with a set of leaf springs other than stock or Herrod (for which you have already tuned sets) you would have to actually install the shocks and drive the car a bit in order to tune them?
Thanks again,
Joe.

Should be fairly close with other leafs but can always tickle them a little to get perfect.
Cheers

Is there a complete coilover set for xr b series utes yet? How low can your ute/car get with these coilovers? And are the ute coilovers (if any) the same price as sedan.

Sorry if these questions have been asked.

We now have kits for the BA through to FG utes using the sedan fronts and the adjustable rear dampers.
The front adjustable dampers come complete with new alloy top mounts, springs and base height adjustable.
They sell for $1700 using the existing rear leaf or for the Herrod leaf spring add $850.
Best Regards
Brett

Thanks for that, is it worth getting the upgraded leaf spring? And how low can the ute get with this set up?
