thefallen1 Posted November 30, 2017 Report Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) Hey Everyone, I have been meandering through previous threads and come across a general opinion. A lot of advice on suspension setup for these KE1x is geared/directed towards "high performance". I'm wondering if there is straight swaps for the struts on the front and rear that wont lower, raise stiffen etc the ride but rather keep it as intended by Toyota. I'm in the process of lookin at struts and the only ones i seem to be able to find are Pedders. (listed below) Front Shocks 8778 Pedders Cartridge Rear Shock 8032 Pedders Shock Absorber Rear Shackle Bushes / Kits EP8118 KIT REAR SPRING REAR EYE & SHACKLE I was quoted 560 just in parts, which seems a bit excessive. does anyone know of a better alternative? Regards F1 Edited November 30, 2017 by thefallen1 Quote
kickn5k Posted November 30, 2017 Report Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) #8778's have been a nil stock part number at peders for 10+ years. Oh and until feb they only have one #8716 (ke20) in the aus warehouse too. The rear shocks work well. Been playing on my front-end lately. Best off keeping an eye on the other thread I'll be posting what ive done there. Are you planning on keeping the transverse leaf? Edited November 30, 2017 by kickn5k 2 Quote
thefallen1 Posted December 8, 2017 Author Report Posted December 8, 2017 Dam, i must have gotten a worker who didn't know his own job unfortunately. Yeah I don't plan on changing anything really the front leaf doesn't bother me. The car will be driven very cruisey and wont be put under stress at all so it shouldn't cause any problems really. You wouldn't happen to know what battery they take do you haha? Quote
