Coil-over Recommendations

Hi All,

I'm looking to buy a replacement pair of coil-overs for the front of my V8.
Ideally they need to have an open length of 8 inches with a 2 inch diameter body.
Anyone have any recommendations for make or supplier??
Thanks in advance.

Im just mid way through ordering some Pro-tech shocks direct from Kev at Protech.
Had a chat with him at Stoneleigh- he's a real knowledgeable, honest chap!
Didnt even bother looking for other manufacturers!

+1 for Protech - very well made and good damping adjustment.





Cheers,

Protech, he is a genuine guy, I had a problem with one of my shocks which was 3 years old sent it of to him he stripped it rebuilt it and posted back at no cost. Now thats customer service

Bloody hell I expected a few positives for Protech but 100%!!

Anyway, I'll add my name to the list.

For budget shocks I would not consider anybody else.

Why? Out of interest.

I was going to fit a pair of Gaz to the back.
