ok well i will say this from experience and confidence as i used to work for them...
THEY MAKE ALL OF THEIR OWN STUFF!!
they have a plant in melbourne that make it all in house and the springs are individually tested unlike king with the batch test that they do.
and yeh pedders do stock a lot of sprinter gear.
wrong
there is nothing wrong with what they do but
their balljoints etc are either 555 or Power max
Industrial springs make springs for pedders here
some of their shocks are monroe
all those products are fine, i personally hate monroes but yeah
i would say that monroe , pedders , king are all shit products , they dont know the first thing about a good suspension package , KYB excel G (short stroke) is the way to go if ur on a budget and plan to use lowered springs.
i would recomend AJPS 6kg for the springs , they were nice and stiff for skids but not to harsh on bumpy roads . (y)
well that was the plan man but i cant afford to change my struts and what not to house the kyb shocks, there made to suit a ae86, god damit i hate povo spec lol
save abit more, well worth it
Badly damped, undersprung. Heavy initial bump damping, no midstroke and fark all bottoming resistance, inadequate rebound. Seems to be the same setup over qute a number of cars...theres a reason...
If you want a low car that feels sharp at low speed, on smooth tarmac turning at intersections, its fine. However, hit the twisties and you'll find you have a flop understeering, body rolling, tyre squealling pig; that chatters over small bumps like its rock hard and crashes through the travel to the bumpstops on bigger hits.
Summary, Shit grip, no body control, not enough rate, horrible horrible ride quality...Just rubbish. Never been in a Preddaters Sackrider equipped car that a stocker wouldn't run rings around
....I'm convinced the reason for this shit setup is solely to make it feel better around town at low speed (where most cars are driven) and make it feel harsh and sporty to match the silly pricetag and imagineering.
Oh they don't last either. 1 year to 18 months tops in a daily driven car before the shocks go off.
/\/\ pwnd :lol:
haha My dad got his suspension done at Pedders for his Commodore and are still going strong after 4 years but I guess he only drives A to B
How many times have you seen kids playing on the Touge at night.
