Thanks for the replies, I'll get my hands on some King springs before I do the swap. I also plan on redoing the bushes while I'm at it.
I have noticed a rear lowering block mentioned on a few pages, can someone please explain what they are?
Just a little bit of history on the Ute that I got, 9/1984 1200 Ute, I am the second owner with 86,000 original km's there are 3 bits of rust in it but apart from that it is pretty straight. With the log books. I got it at what I would consider a very good price and it's yellow.
