I had the Ground control kit from Needswings (Touring springs /Koni Sport shocks) installed a few days ago.
The Merc mechanics i use have initially set it up at a little under stock height with the shocks adjusted half way with what he called a "neutral" wheel alignment . He wants to readjust it all in a months time.
The ride is much smoother now and on our dippy potty rough ozy roads, its way better . Plus the steering actually has feel now. i also find i am cornering faster and easier than before.

The Merc techs were actually quite impressed and surprised how good it is. However, they did warn me never to run the engine on a hoist as the rear wheels hang down further now and the tyres would contact the side skirts ! they said this is due to the longer travel of the Koni shocks vs the stock ones

So no jumping it! but really i would never do that anyway but still.

All in all i am very happy with the Ground control kit so far but am looking forward to it settling in and getting the final height ,shock settings and alignment done.

Rob at Needswings was very helpfull in my decision making and supply as well, Thanks Rob
