it was me that bought Stu's one nibbs .
picked it up and straight into shed onto axle stands and striped off the bits i didnt want on it .

want to do SOA and prob use old lux rears in the front or the ones in it but remove some leaves and do same in rear ..

maybe dont know how many leaves i can take out safely without them snapping .

cause it would look funny lowered onto swampers ..

If you want to do coils, research it abit, then think of all the advantages, then sit down and do it properly. If you want it done fast, then stick with leaves.
