Went to Pedders with one of my old cars... replaced the front and rear shocks, lowered springs etc etc

2 years later went back and they told me the rear shocks were stuffed and the front ones were on the way out

Sorry to resurect an old thread

Sorry to hear you've gone and done it mate, well it's your cash I suppose.

Contrary to others opinions, Pedders is bottom rung equipment, and you're paying Top rung $$$$.

yeah, car was written off. was beautiful while it lasted. suspension was used for 1800km... i hate to think what would have happened had i not have fixed up some of the suspension...

live and learn i guess. next time i'll go elsewhere- and not on a deadline.

so are your still going to be
paying off the suspension you just wrote off?
I hope your insurance comes to the party
and that you aren't too out of pocket.
