cytamen 1 Report post Posted November 3, 2010 How much more clearance do you have between the guard and the tyres do you have on the front? If its a lot higher it could be that whoever put the springs on before put them on upside down. Have bought two cars like this... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thorburn 121 Report post Posted November 3, 2010 what??? a spring is a spring. It will sag to the same height wether it's upside down or not 70mm at the back sounds like a lot. Reverse rake Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reverse rake Im not entirely certain about that but there is a left and right for the front suspension springs... new2thisgame...give Jono...from Mag&Tyre Direct a call about lowering...I think they can offer a better deal and they are bloody good at what they do... Mag and Tyre Direct Contact Johno - Zenetti on BS Forum [email protected] Tel. 09 580 1371 Mag and Turbo...Ive dealt with them and I cant say I was happy with their service...

_Matt_ 42 Report post Posted November 3, 2010 I was quoted $599 for an H&R install at mag and tyre. Maybe if i said "Johno said $499 though"! i could get it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
