Ironman Foamcell

Ironman Foamcell

Postby MLTZER on Sun, 30 Jun 2019 12:19 +0000

So after a bullbar, extra battery, heavy duty bash plates as expected I need to lift the nose back up.

I’m not ready for a full lift just yet, I went to a local 4x4 store who deals without iron man. I was quoted $500 for installation of new springs that will bring the nose back up, after further inspection he thinks I may need new structural as the bushes look a bit worn. Given the hilux has 200,000k on the clock I’m happy to also replace the struts. Quote for new springs, struts, wheel alignment is $900. Are the Ironman foamcell struts good? I don’t do much off road 90% of my driving is on the black top.

Thanks

I have Ironman Foam Cell on mine, they were on there when I bought it, they are fine on the blacktop, they just happen to fade fairly quickly on rough roads (that said, I don't know how old they are).

Admittedly I only have a 40kg Xrox on the front, so they're not dealing with a lot of weight.

$900 installed and aligned is a pretty good price, THe only ones I've looked at in that price range are Outback Armour and Rancho ($880 and $830 respectively for a pair of assembled struts, supply only)
