terrafirma stuff from frogsisland4x4 are meant to be pretty good and come in diff ratings that are easy to understand. their only £200 for a full set to.

many people say that the original HD stuff is ex quality. but i dont know how much these cost. check paddocks website, they must have something on the OE equip.

why are you opting for HD over standard?

stupid really was thinking HD would be better, now reading various forums this is not the case

at the minute the springs etc on my 90 leave her sitting nice, i will now wait until i fit the heavier 200tdi engine and see how she looks

200tdi shouldnt be much if at all heavier than the TD should it?
