I love my lowered car and have a few sh*t roads to dive but am glad i did many years ago

#7: Re: What Springs...If Any ? Author: richpowell91, Location: Melton Mowbray LeicestershirePosted: Sat Nov 26, 2011 4:46 pm ---- I hate to say it but i think the shocks are cheaper from kamracing, you could also get the springs from them aswell.
You only need springs for the front.
#8: Re: What Springs...If Any ? Author: Coolspot, Location: East SussexPosted: Sat Nov 26, 2011 4:47 pm ---- Springs and damper for front and dampers with a torsion bar adjustment for the rear.
i have G-max springs and dampers all round 35mm drop running 17" rims and have been on the car for 5-6 years, pretty good ride IMO but some may say different.
#9: Re: What Springs...If Any ? Author: Tam80, Location: Dundee/MotherwellPosted: Sat Nov 26, 2011 4:54 pm ---- is it easy to adjust the torsion bar ?
wheres best/cheapest place to get just the front springs then ?
cheers again guys
#10: Re: What Springs...If Any ? Author: Seabook, Posted: Sat Nov 26, 2011 4:57 pm ---- those are just oem shock
#11: Re: What Springs...If Any ? Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Sat Nov 26, 2011 5:13 pm ---- If you are going to the effort of changing the dampers you might as well get sportier springs whilst everything is apart. Eibach -35mm springs will go well
I have Apex springs and dampers and I think they are really good. If you were to put Apex springs with your Biltein dampers I'm not sure if it would be different or not though, but they are cheaper
Torsion bars are easy, just getting them out is tricky if they have been in there a long time. But its not as dreaded as everyone makes it out to be, search for Ape's how to guide.
#12: Re: What Springs...If Any ? Author: Rob2859, Location: HalifaxPosted: Sat Nov 26, 2011 5:56 pm ---- Might as well. Mine is down 35mm too and I have not had to change my driving style in the slightest. Far from it I still take it places most people wouldn't take their land rover
