Would anyone know if these OEM coils would fit the gq? Assuming theyre still available :)
Still available
Oooh, this is not good news for my wallet. :)

Let me start a thread in the suspension section and see what the experts say. I have absolutely no idea if it will be a good idea or not to put these on my old girl.

Can you post a pic of the rear sway bar extension brackets? What length is it?
You not interested in selling it separate to the coils?

Anybody on the Forum any idea what a set of new shocks will costs to suite these coils, I can do with a lift, as at some places in the thick Namibia sand I can hear and fell the sand holding me back.
