    Default springs springs springs.......

    well after raising the vy ute from SSSL to standerd my old man agrees its way to high,
    its a mountain goat

    ive got the option of set of vt ss springs for free aslong as i have a set of springs for my mates vt for when/if he gets defected

    my question is there actually any diffrence in the springs compression strength between a sedan and ute springs?
    bassically it needs lowering but is it worth the effort putting only a set of fe2 in it?
    or will the sedan springs be a weaker strength allowing it to sit a little lower?

    from this

    The fronts are the same, but the rears will be different. The ute springs are smaller. If yours is a V6 the fronts will be a different compression rate as well.
