Selling the bits I've pulled out or not using after Calmini kit install:

Calmini 3" struts - average condition, ex comp so had a hard life. No spacers or camber bolts. $50 the pair.

Calmini 3" shocks - as above, average condition. $50 the pair.

OME 35-40mm front springs - medium duty, ride a bit harsh without at least a bar on the front, bar + winch settles them nicely. Done less than 10,000km, bought new, powdercoat still good. $100 the pair.

Tough Dog GV 35-40mm rear springs - will lift a LWB Vit around 50mm. Again, very firm ride without some weight in the back, not really recommended for SWB. Bought used, done 10,000km in my car, still very good condition. $100 the pair.

Bruce's 20mm front coil spacers - will match the ride height of the above front and rear springs in LWB Vit. Good cond. Free if someone buys both pairs of springs, or $20 seperate. - SOLD pending payment

Stock Vit control arms front and rear, rear v-arm and balljoint - original gear, few knocks and scrapes, is what it is. $5 per bit. FRONT AND REAR CONTROL ARMS GONE

All prices are plus postage, or pickup from north Bris.

Will try to get pics up soon, but computer is in hospital... Have a look through my build thread for most stuff.

Calmini 3" struts

Calmini 3" shocks

OME 35-40mm front springs

Tough Dog GV 35-40mm rear springs

----

Will these four work together in a SWB vit (that has coil spacers)? or would the shocks and struts be too long?

And what kind of undesirable effects will come for a SWB because of the harder ride?

The only difference is that there is significantly less weight over the rear of a shorty, so it will 1) ride higher, and 2) ride harsher. While I'm keen to get rid of this stuff, the TD rears, which are for a GV, so heavier again, would transfer every bump straight to your spinal cord!

Otherwise the gear would work fine as a package, ride height may not match front to rear depending on your spacers, and you'd need to get camber bolts from Pedders or somewhere. Also just note the warning that the Cal gear is out of a comp truck, so no warranty expressed or implied!
