I used Don VTOL he was good cost double for the ruf as he has to "prove" the springs are good enough for the front. Mine specifies howmany leaves per pack! Ithink $600 for whole vehicle.

Before you go any further talk to an engineer or you may have to redo things to there specs but Id say overall if done right it should be engineerable.

Get athol mullens to certify it. You'll never have a problem. His reputation speaks for itself.

As for Werner at TIC, his reputation speaks for himself, and many people have some quite unfriendly thinks to say about his work.
ie: sight unseen dodginess.

I spoke to a mate that works in the rta (yeah I know I didnt actually ring so this may be b/s) but he said vtol is still on the list of approved engineers.
