Went to Pedders with one of my old cars... replaced the front and rear shocks, lowered springs etc etc

2 years later went back and they told me the rear shocks were stuffed and the front ones were on the way out

Sorry to hear you've gone and done it mate, well it's your cash I suppose.

Contrary to others opinions, Pedders is bottom rung equipment, and you're paying Top rung $$$$.

so are your still going to be
paying off the suspension you just wrote off?
