"NAXJA" will get you a 10% discount.

Do you have a link to that one AR? Also is it an update or preupdate rear bar? Sorry to hijack....

well ive emailed rustys, claytons, iron rock and rough county for a qoute on the long arm upgrade kit

arms and brackets to mount as i arleady have shockers. and a set of 6.5 coils, and if they make a RHD track bar.

im already leaning towards the iron rock one, read good reports on the usa forums. i have their OTK steering set up and i like it

im looking at ordering in another week or 2. how was their customer service?

freight prices? shipping times?

Irok have the rhd track bar just an extra 50 bucks ontop of the kit. I ordered the otk as well. Costumer service is great can't complain, get a faster response than aussie shops! Freight prices are fair i guess cant remember excactly but was around 900 bucks in shipping to get all my stuff to my door. Still waiting on delivery, I have lots of time so not bothered. I will let you know on the quality of the gear when i get it.

My two front flares are in, was pretty hungover past 2 days so couldnt make a lot of progress, the drill and the angle grinder was a killer being hungover. will hopefully have the rears in tomorrow
