Well considering it is still at one-tonne stock height I say it is a very considerable increase in handling.
Ute now stays flat through corners, the rear also stays flat. I've estimated corner speed is up by around 15-20km/hr, but my nerves aren't there yet. They cost me $450 in total, sent to North Qld, and I would say it is the best bang for buck mod I have done. I had an EA sedan which was lowered, and the AU at stock height easily outhandles it.

Rear is only 20mm, but still made a difference. Yep whiteline stuff, so far they are great! I've got a few other things I have to do to them when I lower the ute, such as replace the front link bushes and adjust the rear links to suit a new height, which should only enhance it further. Daniel..
