As stated above, thinking about compressing an inch or more out of my lowered king springs (1' lower i think at the moment). So 2'+ drop from standard.
I know knoath has mentioned before Brown's Spring Works in Thomastown, anywhere else pref on the eastern side of town that do this??????

If there is, do they re-valve shocks as well? if not who does?

I have some 2nd hand monroe shocks here to suit standard or 1' lowered springs. When getting shocks revalved can they shorten the shock to to suit a 2'+ drop?? Also what would be a good valving value (bump/rebound) for a nice handleing ROAD car ride but not gonna shake teeth out? Don't mind it on the harder side though.
Or just get some Koni reds and play with them, Qa1 ever better :tease:
Oh yeah and prices too for the above would be great :rockon:
Cheers

Is Brown Springs the place where they actually set the springs?

I know if you take your springs to pedders, i think it costs about $40 a spring to get re-set. would it be cheaper if you went straight to Brown Springs?
