who supplies them and for what sort of prices

so far I know of LMF and the Mtech kit at £560(ish)

Reason I ask is that we have a few conversions booked in this month so I have made up some mount kits and ordered some specially made shafts and hubs, made the tie bar lowering blocks and gearbox spacers so all we need to do is make some powercap type thingys. could probably sell the kits for not a lot more than £400 if there was enough interest.

Aren't the LMF kits M-Tech ones anyway?

yes, plenty of people doing just mounts but not many doing full kits. plus the Mtech kits are a rip-off IMO and arent anything special, I know what LMF buy them in at

similar costs to what I was looking at although I would say a "full" kit would include cv joints, intake mod (powercap or similar) etc

I would recommend Chris Astley to anyone. So far I have spent in excess of a grand with him any everything is top notch

C4RLO i could not agree more. I would not go anywhere else for a fitting kit or other parts. Everything he sells is spot on and fits right first time.
