Spax SSX -25mm Spring Kit

[Chris.S]

I've decided that I'm going to fit :?:

[Monster-Mat]

i strongly recomend it at least a few days afterwards to allow the springs to settle

[TonyGoose]

And make sure whoever fits them does final tightening of nuts and bolts with the car resting on it's wheels...

ie NOT with the suspension dangling while the car is on a hoist.

Otherwise your bushes will be stressed and shred prematurely.

Just a small common sense point which so many so called 'professional' garages choose to 'overlook'

[Chris.S]

One of our experienced Lexus Technicians will be doing them,he realigned my steering wheel to dead centre a couple of week back just before JAE,because as I drove down a dual carrigeway or motorway if I put the steering wheel dead centre the car would wander off to the lef

The RRP is £199.99 for the kit,but I believe we have a discount structure with Demon Tweeks where I'm going

[Mitch]

wot about fitting chris??

[Chris.S]

Me and one of my mates are doing them in my garage

[Mitch]

ok how much would it cost to have them fitted at lexus?? would it affect the warranty??

[Chris.S]

You're looking a couple of hours fitting time which would roughly about £100,then there is the full suspension alignment and adjustment to consider which you're probably looking at another £80-£90

The warranty becomes void on any part of the vehicle that is connected to the springs ie dampers

Zee how do you manage with speed bumps ?

Does it catch underneath at all even if going slow

Nah not at all Chris - and I even have the kit. You obviously have to take it easy, but nothing that should alter your driving style to be honest.

The good thing is it takes the huge gap out of the rear arches and it handles like a dream......

When you getting it done? :tumble:

[Chris.S]

Hopefully in the next few weeks but I've heard someone is getting a deal together with Demon Tweeks for Gold Membership Discount,so I'm waiting for that
