Suspension, WALK and arb (rear) are 3 seperate operations so no money saved by doing one or all three at one time. But the TT mk2 lower control arms along with the WALK is labour saved as the WALK are to be fitted to the lower control arms.
Benefits of the TT mk2 lower arms is adjustable camber, lower unsprung weight and wider track as they are longer than the mk 5 ones.  :happy2:  :drinking:

Thanks mate,

And don't worry - I will reply to your PM shortly. I just don't have anything useful to say just yet - wheels are off though.

You must have dealt with the English before lol.

I'd go for the Bilstein coilovers - You might not want to keep adjusting them but it's useful to be able to tweak easily and then leave as is.

WALK and most definitely ARB's but I'm not sure about the TT arms: I don't see how you can avoid some uneven tyre wear if you add camber and wouldn't you also be well advised to change the hubs?

Easier to do the ARB's while working on the suspension.

Out of interest, would you have bought Hurdy's car if it was being offered still with its mods fitted? (assuming the price was acceptable).
