How much are those Rancho's??? Look like they'll be expensive.

i havent been quoted a price yet, but i should think theyll be around the £100 (each) mark. im just not sure whether i really want adjustables though...

In my experience adjustables come in 2 camps.

Massve range of adjustment (ranchos appear to fall into these as do spax) most setting of which are either too hard or too soft for real use.

Fine sensitive proper adjustment - for which most of us just aren't good enough drivers to really know the difference and how to set them properly (me included). Having worked with people who can set these things up right its not easy and theres more to it than you think, what "feels" right often isn't.

Personally I'd just use something off the shelf, if |I were doing Paris Dakar or hill rally or similar sure I'd use adjustables but I'd also pay for a testing session and get someone to set them to my finished vehicle.

that was my general thought, i just needed to hear it from someone else. ill probably just go for rough countrys all round
