VE omega lowered suspension too soft

[beasso81au]

Hi I'm the owner of a ve omega 08 model I have installed a set of ssl springs (blue in colour) and Monroe GT shocks now I have the issue of the rear being too soft, i need an option that will allow me to tow a boat as i already need to leb roll it over speed humps and driveways, I can't bring myself to raise my car as I love the look of a lowered car, if I could stiffen the rear somehow without raising it too much i would be stoked.... Any ideas would be much appreciated..... P.S. I'm on a limited budget

Coilovers. Adjust your own ride height and stiffness as you see fit.

HD Kings in the rear will fix the issue. Speak to Greg at GSL.

i got HD SSL rears in my sedan and i tow bikes all the time, ride is amazing with the GT Shocks.

As Tim said, $135 for a pair of Kings HD, and you'd be laughing.

does it scrape out at all?

if it scraps out even with HD springs, you arent towing correctly.... too much weight on tow bar.
in actual fact, if the load is properly balanced there shouldnt be that much weight on tow bar that it sags the back end much at all... even with lowered springs.
i tow a car trailer on the back of mine on a regular basis, and even though its lowered it never scraps out.

balance the tow load mate.... even if you need to buy a load leveling kit, but too much weight across the neck of a trailer is never a good thing.

it doesnt sound like you have the right springs installed mate.
I've had 3 adults in the back, 2 up front, and a boot full of luggage.... and it didnt sit low enough for me to worry about scraping at all. it sat lower of course, but not to the point of losing any exhaust components!

It depends on where he's driving. I can't take mine on the roof of any of the westfields around the area because of my cat scraping on the expansion gaps. Not to mention home made speed bumps that a lot of smaller shopping centres like to use. Keeping this in mind, mine only sits around 25-30mm lower than standard.
