    Default coilover helper springs - group buy interest?

    who have people bought them through and how much?

    i found this place in the states which appear to be selling them for about $20(US) / pair.

    if there is nowhere local and cheap then i may just have some shipped over. any interested parties for possible group buy?

    whiteline makes and sells them

    Kings Springs may as well, they make coilover springs but not sure about helpers. Whiteline definitely do though becasue I was going through their catalogue yesterday and noticed them.

    give them a call... retail on their websales site is $90 a spring, so consider that the MAX price you will spend

    There are several people of various forums that can provide wholesale pricing on Whiteline bits and pieces.

    probably by the end they'll be up around $30-$35. shipping + exchange + postage

    still seems to be cheaper then the local ones

    no response from the place yet but my importbitz coilover sleeve kit arrived today.

    the tube diameter is something like 60 but the diameter on the nut is about 65mm. i presume you have the same type nipples? ill probably machine the step back to 63mm or whatever the other common size is because i have a couple sets of those springs.
