pedders and king's much the same, shorten's shocks to suit, King's about $80 pair suspension city west melb.
DO NOT cut the springs it just f**ks you car and they can fall out over bumps.

Lovells with Koni yellows. For track duty could wind front shocks almost right up. Backs were always left soft.
For road froints were right off. Have seen stiff shocks pop out shock towers on road cars. Current dirt/road car has standard TX springs rear, TD front and monroe gas shocks to gain a rear droop stance |

Running sport adjustable koni shocks
Whiteline adjustable sway bars/panhard rod
lowered king springs and urethane bushs.
Handling is very good round corners, doesn't roll around the road..etc |
