    Default How low can I go?

    hey guys.

    Quick question
    How short can i get springs to lower my calais and keep my shocks? Im only thinking of dropping it a bit, like 20mm 30mm maybe.

    I have heard 30mm but i dunno. I think thats like SSL's? or ultralows?

    Thanks

    You can go King Spring Low's which will lower it by about that much. Won't require different shocks unless you have towing pack suspension or something similar.

    As taken from the King Spring website

    Front Low: Lowers vehicle approximately 30mm below standard.
    Front STD: Standard Height.
    Front Raised: Raises vehicle approximately 20mm above standard (recommended for bull bar, country driving or whenever increased ground clearance is desired).
    Rear Low: Lowers vehicle approximately 30mm below standard.
    Rear STD +:Standard height to 20mm raised.
    Rear Raised: Raises vehicle approximately 30-40mm above standard (recommended for excessive towing, load-carrying or LPG tank etc)

    NOTE: Super Low coils are generally 40-50 below standard.
