I went the caloffroad way, and saved a punt load of money

How could you save a heap when they want top dollar?

I paid $809 to Cal Offroad for their UCA's, HD tie rod adjusters and idler arm brace - delivered to Melbourne.

Ok , Calmini in USA charge less than $390 x current exchange rate.

Calmini Arms

maybe CalOffraod actually buy the Calmini and give them a lick of black paint?

my concern is when I look at Frontier pics in the USA they are D40's

 

[gazza414]

I've sent 3 emails over 2 weeks
No reply haha. I want them
Posted to my Aunty in la. As she travels as a tour manager and lives her 1 month at a time. And shell bring them
Back to
Me

What part number did you actually buy ? and did you confirm your Navara model etc with them ?.did they understand the differences between the d22 and d40?

Nope - Cal Offroad are their own - according to their website. They do import Calmini products.

Snake Racing get the Calmini and re-badge them.

You be loving the extra bump atop clearance with that big heavy 8 in the front.
Did you find them on aus eBay?

I found them on Aus ebay and the V8 isnt much heavier than the iron V6 block.

Shouldnt need them. I've taken the leaf clips off mine springs for my length and they are still long enough

Well
My Aunty got through to calmini.
Postage to my door is $179.20
Or to my Aunty is $17.80 but I'll have to wait five works til the parts get here with her.
Theyre email has been
Blocking my email due to the word poo haha. (I've had it since i was like 14)
Sounds like a sweet deal for
Me. Only thing is their shackles at 1.5" rather than 2" will it look out of wack?
Ill end getting brake lines from superior as they're inexpensive compared to snake.
Calmini accept paypal too which is awesome
And easy.
