where about are you, i only ask cos there are some robbing gits out there. and somr body close to you maybe able to help you..

i live in middlesbrough i took mine to garage called north eastern 4x4 loads my friends said them and so did others i didnt know,been reading that coversion takes away really all my problems but in doing so dont wanna devalue car or will i increase cars value in doing so

yes putting springs on will do that, but remember they are not made to run on springs. and you will have to imform your ins, as its a mod..

Tell him to take a bloody hike. Somebody can sort that with a couple of good secondhand units for a lot less that the cost of the spring convertion. And you'll have a proper Rangie not a four sprung bouncy castle.

i dont know of anyone else in my area whos mint specialist i basicly need mobile guy cos driving it to garages is night mare having gearbox problem can anyone recommend any others

It would of course help if you put your loction on. Crystal ball is in for a service.

Dont do it Fatty. (That rings a bell......) Have a look here and diagnose it yourself. They are a lot simpler than people think. Give us a list of the problems and we will sort it right out.
