Suspension Issues

Well I was trying to buy some JIC FL2 VIPs for my F50 Q but JIC wants my spindles upfront or they wont import them for me. Which isnt an option since that would put my car out of commision. What makes me angry as intially they just wanted a core charge and my spindles after I installed the new suspension. Does anyone know of other coilover kits for the F50 q45? Or any JIC dealer willing to help me out and get some business? Otherwise will the Q's spindle system make it difficult to go with a custom air setup? Or should i just hold out for when i can buy air runner? But that might be a long time, and i have a set of wheels thats just begging to be thrown on and im not doing that until i can slam the car!

thanks for all the help ;D

Re: Suspension Issues

Re: Suspension Issues

Maybe you could luck out and fine a pair of spindles at a wrecker?

I just some searching and Tein doesn't even have anything for the F50 that I can find :(

Re: Suspension Issues

oh ok :) I noticed the F50 application for Air runner is one of the most expensive. Do you have a ballpark what it will cost to get the suspension to you including shipping?
