I'm happy with the springs on my Vitara. Speak to Aldo he the technical guy,as long as they know the spec for your OEM springs he'll make anything you like.

One of my earlier spring sets was from them...they sagged way too quickly and their only soluion was to reset them (at my cost) which resulted in a crappy ride and then they sagged again....absolute waste of money IMHO.....
And yes I dealt only with aldo......

Ive never bought any of their springs so cant comment on that.

But, I have had some things fitted by them which I supplied (coz I didnt have the tools).

Never again! They damage a few things while fixing (if you could call it that) another.
Dont expect mere proof to sway my opinion.

I've got a set of All Springs Jumboz in my GQ patrol, which have been in there for a couple of years.

I did initially have a few probs with them. For some reason the back right sat low, but this might have been some miscommunication between me and them. I fitted the springs, but they weren't marked, but i'm pretty sure i put the longer one in the FRHS as directed. Anyway, they lengthened the RRHS spring and the car now sits pretty level, probably as good as you would expect with ~6" lift.

Which brings me to a slight warning. I asked for a 4" raised spring and got more like 6", and no it didn't sag to 4". Other people have said this too, so just be a little cautious and clearly discuss your requirements.

Anyway, i reckon they work pretty well, they don't sag under a reasonable weight and they flex all the way to the bump stop and then right out too, and ride pretty comfotably, which i reckon seems to strike a pretty good compromise. So they must be doing something right. Their slight inaccuracy might have more to do with their lower production volumes than other like kings or dobbinsons.

Can't really help you with their fitting service. I fitted mine, but they were supposed to pull out the right rear, but i kind of did most of it using their forklift.

Hope that helps you a bit.

I had their lowered Jumbo springs in a car about thriteen years ago (Laser 4WD turbo.) They were terrible and got taken out and returned. Kings supplied a set that was absolutely fantastic.
