Hi
Looking for some info on where I can buy
a set of coil springs for 4.5
I am replacing Safari shocks with Bilstein and Mikem only has coils for rear.
Cheers
Craig

Coils for 4,2 and 4,5 and 4,8 are same .. fully inter change-able [found that out on THOR when I slapped a set of almost new 4,8 Patrol's coils & shocks in front & rear [ask new owner of THOR if he is happy :-) ]

If I replace the front with standard coils and put the Mikem coils on
the back will the front not do a bit of a nose dive.
