ROW M030 kit options
 
Planning for the 2013 upgrades and suspension is on the list. Budget is as always strict and best value for money important. (To many toys are sharing the limited upgrading budget).
Found a ROW M030 kit with dampers and another ROW M030 kit without dampers at half the price. With only 65.000 miles on the odo in my 2000 box there should be some lifetime left in the original ones. Maybe not the best and most economical solution long term but will it work and give a reasonable improvement over todays US standard suspension? What do you experienced guys say, is this poor mans solution just money down the drain?

I did Bilstein Sports with H&R Springs

Once you pull your suspension you will probably find the dampeners are well worn out. I suggest all new at 65K and 12 yrs old. A fresh M030 is pretty sweet. :cheers:

I hear where you're coming from but you'll be better off doing it once and doing it right. The 65K mile struts probably still have some life in them but there is nothing but the assisted care and hospice days ahead.

Bite the bullet and replace the struts; you hate to have to nearly do all of the labor all over again in 15K miles when the struts will be gasping for their last breath for sure.
