Markey - i am using a leafer - the 2 inch lift was for the wifes LWB B series - i wasn't sure if was going to be able to get the SWB A series welded up in time
Many thanks for the offer though -
I might just fit uprated HD ones and have done with her
I am going to fit Milner springs to the SWB - reason being i already have one so the cost is minimal -
any idea why milners springs - leafs get such a bad review ?
cheers

I think its the coils that are badly rated. _________________ |
