ALl u need is the strut, 2 ball joints, 2 washers and 2 nuts. I drilled a hole through the right boot hinge, and put a ball joint there, and did the same directly below at the edge of the right suspension tower. Popped the strut on and done! vlt-dreamer 17-05-04, 10:29 how do i fit a similar setup to my vl commodore? can someone please send me a pic of this in their walkie cos i kno they had em cos of that sexy tho real big ass! www.rarespares.net.au under the boot strut section, they sell the strut for a vl for 80 bucks.
