hi seanOs, jeff here i see your thinking of a jumbuck well my
has been lowered and while the ride is firm it's not bad, remember
it is a ute with leaf springs . fulcrum's in brisbane do a kit for
them , they replace the rear single leaf with a four leaf version.
performance wise it is the same 4g15 as in the satria and early cc
lancers but keep it on the boil and they go allright, if you want
more you could turbo it or transplant an early lancer into it
cost????? anywho if you want an economical ute you can't go wrong.
hope you find this stuff usefull jeff.
