    Been using BFG KO2's for a while now and love them, so do some of my mates who run them.
    93 GQ wagon, RB30, extractors, 2 inch tough dog lift, 5 spd, A/T KO2 32's, steel winch bar, rated recovery points, red arc dual battery set up, rhino roof racks, UHF etc etc. Slow and steady might not win the race but it gets me there eventually...

    It's not rocket science to replace coils and shocks. Just remember common sense. You have a lot of weight sitting on those parts AND on the jacks/stands you're supporting it on while changing the parts out... Just go slow and stedy you'll be fine. If using spring compressors, be very careful as if they let go under tension... A lot of inertia force can hurt !
    I've done a few cars my self so far and it isnt that hard. On GU's front drop the sway bars but be very of limiting the brake lines etc...

    Hey mate just pulled my springs or in the weekend to put in some spacers. Back ones are easy just undo shocks & sway bar links then drop the axle down with the chassis firmly supported with stands or equivalent Springs will drop out when low enough. Front the same but might have to jack it down a little further as such to get the coil out.



    Won't need any spring compressors just watch brake & diff breather lines.
