yeah i got the koni sports all round for my el xr6, but havent put them in yet. the fronts also have adjustable spring platforms, which means the fronts can be lowered an extra 25mm by seating the spring further down the shocker.

Hmm I might go in there with cash and heckle him some more.
I was after rears only.
edit: Was he open to the idea of negotiation, does he try to give off the idea that his prices are fixed.

hey guys,
i've been quoted $965 for koni red's all round, with koni "low"? springs supplied and fitted. good price?

also, is it essential to also get the camber kit, as i have just replaced the tyres and the tyre joint was telling me to get the suspension looked at cos it was pointless to align the front wheels (front passenger side) cos it would keep throwing alignment. would the camber kit fix this? approximately how much would it cost if i did need one?

the car is already lowered on pedders springs and stock shocks (so the rears are on the way out now!)

oh, its an EF XR6 by the way :)

Went koni reds all round in my falcon 5 years ago. Was well worth it. If I were to do it again I'd go for the yellows on the front, and reds on the back, as the yellows have an adjuster knob mounted externally. Makes adjustment easier, whilst getting the rear shocks out is never a struggle like the front ones are.

Only recently took them back out and adjusted them. Lets see some monroe gas shcckers last that long.
