My car has just recently started to develop some serious suspension issues. I'm looking for a trustworthy person I can take the car to, get it up on a hoist and give me the low down on what work needs to be done. I'm pretty sure my shocks are rooted, but I'd like everything else to do with suspension looked over. Life has been pretty crappy for me over the last few weeks with family members passing away and the last thing I need is some idiot feeding me bulls**t trying to con me out of money that I barely have. Ideally I would like to see someone on the south side, but if you know someone good north of the city I'd like to know either way.

Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated guys.

Never use Pedders, unless you either

A) Know the owner
B) Know the owner by proxy

Pedders sucks balls.

Haven't been there personally, but Fulcrum Suspension at Moorooka sound good. They're a major distributor in Qld of suspension components, and seem to have a lot of expertise (dad was talking to them about getting custom-made Koni shocks for his Territory).

PM QMD///801. He has used every suspension shop in bris i swear lol

If you wanna travel up to the sunshine coast, i know a guy who would be more than happy just to look over the car, and he wont charge if he doesnt actually do anything.

Thanks for the replies. After speaking to a few people it looks like Fulcrum is my best bet. I'd take it to your guy Feeky but the trip up to the Sunny Coast would be hell with the suspension the way it is.

And as for Pedders, don't worry, I've read plenty about their dodgy ways on many websites. lol

Thanks again people.

I've used City Suspension in Springwood with no issues as well.
