Newbe needs advice on lowering

Post by AxlFoley » Tue Feb 24, 2009 10:33 am

I have just bought a bongo, so am new to this forum, I am looking to fit lowered suspension, is there any where in the UK that sells springs for them?

And are they easy to fit.

Thanks

Be careful you don't buy cut down springs rather than lowered springs, may be worth talking to Bellhill Garage, advertised on the main bongo Fury Site.
You can't polish a turd - but you can roll it in glitter.
