Jeez costing me a fortune:

Front spring broke:

so ordered the following:

Front Springs
Front Shocks
Rear Shocks

So all in all its had:

Complete Track Rods (2)
Back And Front Brake Reline
New Powerflex rollbar bushes (2)
New Drop Links (2)
New Wishbone Assemblies (2)
New Rear springs & Shocks
New Front springs & Shocks

I have gone for Sachs springs & shocks (Standard)

Anything else I should be changing while am at it?

Its Cost me a little over £700 so far (

You got all the gaskets and nuts and bolts you are supposed to renew at the same time. I am going to be replacing my shocks and springs soon on the ///M and these have just cost me £50 on their own mind you also got the reinforcing plates for the rear top mounts so probably only half that really but still expensive.
