Bongo Fury

I've been looking at some of the mods for the bongo and like the idea of lowering for the handling and styling but could you tell me the make/ supplier of these .I know you can buy new standard shocks but if your going to lower it you may as well fit gas shocks.

Have a chat with Tom at http://www.bellhillgarage.co.uk. He imports springs etc. from Japan.

Ok this is what I have done so far.

Woody,... those siderails are excellent.
Could you tell us how you made them?
Ive been looking for something similar but with no luck.

First time I've looked in this section of the forum - there's some very nice looking machines in here!
