I have been looking on the web for parts suppliers and there seems to be a lot of price variants, as I am looking to replace most of the suspension, the cost is important but so is service where do you recommend
Thanks
Neil

Price varies but so does quality of pattern parts. Lots of horror stories about Britpart, so do your homework...

If you're looking for springs, are you changing to parabolics? I think the Rocky Mountain ones are supposed to be pretty good.

Rocky Mountain are probably the 2nd best parabolic springs, however RockyMountain UK struggles to have stock of them most of the time and in such times will sell cheaper, crapper versions made in the UK or elsewhere.

Lots and lots of places, but everyone's experience will vary. I've bought a lot from Paddock as it's easy to do online. But I wouldn't say they are great at all.

What are you planning suspension wise? Stock or upgraded?

I was going the stock route on this one, but will be modifying a light weight in the near future V8 etc

LRseries give you choice of patten or genuine parts when you browse the website side by side so you can compare price difference. Genuine stuff can often be cheaper than you think
