I am currently considering trading my VU Ute for an Ignition VE SSV. It is pretty much stock so the first thing I would want to do it get it lowered.

Can any of the current VE owners out there tell me the sort of cost I would be looking at to install lowered springs and replace the bump stops. From what I have read most people seem to be using King's or Pedders for the spring replacement.

Cheers.

On the coast, Mermaid Suspension or King Springs will be able to help you out with your suspension requirements. Make sure you go to somewhere who has done them before, we have seen some nasty wheel alignments and jobs not done correctly :teach:

Totally agree with this, find somewhere who has a laser wheel alignment machine and make sure they know how to use it. Luke discovered a shocking front wheel alignment from Bridgestone on the front of my ute, granted it did have a bent control arm but taught me who to trust!
