Title: front coil springs
Post by jerry on 11. Feb 2011 at 15:05

just taken the mig in for its MOT and needs track rod and a new front coil spring. Price for the coil spring Ive been quoted at being around £70 which seems dear to me. Looked on ebay and there are some at £43 and then Kilen at £54. Anyone any recommendations as a he is happy to fit If I can get cheaper ones. thanks :y

cheers guys .I had KYB ones when a rear one went last time round and, yes, makes sense to change them in pairs-though the wallet wont like it ;D :(

gotta say it's never crossed my mind only to change one it's sorta like brake pads in my opinion

Got a pair of Kilens on both fronts - no issues to report with 'em. :y
They're one of the few aftermarket suppliers who do 'model-specific' coils for the Omega. ;)
