Hey guys, I recently got a VS Series 3 Ute. It's pretty much stock, besides an aftermarket zorst, and as soon as i have enough moolah i would love to mod this thing up (being a student sucks).

My main question at the moment is about lowering the ute. What is the best value for money suspension set up that would get me a nice low stance without costing me an arm and a leg? and does anyone know a good place in perth that is recommended for installing suspension set ups?

If you want a cheap starting set up just grab some King springs or equivalent and have some one install followed by a wheel alignment.
Replace shockers if you've got the dosh. Especially fronts as they're coming out to fit the springs!
Ute should have solid axle rear end so the wheel alignment wont be an issue...just dump it.

Pics of said ute? V6? V8?

As mentioned, King springs are prolly the easiest and cheapest way to go.
