Hiya guys,

Have got my kit all correct and ok. For those that dont know, i got a deluxe panther kit from Darren at Gtstuning. Only differnce was that i got it in a IRS version.
I am currently looking at ordering shocks/springs, hopefully tomorrow but not sure whether i want 12" or 13" rear shocks, and im pretty certain fronts should be 12".

Darren hasnt been online today and would like to get it ordered tomorrow so i get them before xmas so any advice appreciated!

Thanks

Ed

Edit: Looking at getting protech! But still open to Gaz

I got the gaz adjustable ones, i seem to remember the panther spec requires 12" shocks all round, whereas the locost is 12" fronts and 13" rears.

You should be looking for 275lb front springs and 175lb as a start. I upped the front springs to 325lb and they are a bit on the har side for a road set up....

I think David is right the Panther uses 12" front and rear.
