    Default Wanting to borrow a set of lowered springs

    Hi all, I wasn't sure what section to put this in so here goes.

    As many of you know there is a pretty big Commodore cruise on in QLD next Sunday. Anyway I'm running the standard BT1 rear suspension, which while practical for driveways, doesn't really look that great. So what I'm asking is whether anyone has a set of superlows or similar which I could borrow for a day. I want a set that will level the car out and have the wheel arch pretty close to touching the rear tyre. I'm based in the Lockyer Valley in south east QLD if anyone is able to help me out.

    Thanks

    Say What?

    Why dont you just go to a wreckers and pick up a pair for $50 each?

    Whats the point of wasting your time installing them for one day?

    Sorry if it sounds like im being rude, but this seems like a FAIL to me.

    because like I said, I don't want the rear of the car to be dragging its arse every time I pull into work...and none of the wreckers near me have them. Besides its like a 15 minute job to change springs - Just unbolt the axle from the bottom of the shocks and it drops far enough to allow the springs to be removed.

    The car's a live axle by the way.

    If you cant find/borrow a set let me know within the next two weeks. I work at a wreckers and im sure we have a few sets.
    Would be $100 for the rears + postage to QLD probebly around $40.
