    Post dump rear end vs ute

    hey everyone, just put 20'' sigs on my ute and i lowered the rear with ssl king springs, and its slighty tucking the tyre, ive seen some other vs wagons and sedans and there tucking alot more than mine, and my ute is just about siting on the bumpstop mounts, about 10mm off.
    just wanting to know if theres anyway it could go lower, thanks.

    Some say cut the bump stops n some say buy smaller bump stops, but I'd say air bag the rear end n it will tuck how ever much u want

    airbag it or get some sssl springs but you will defiantly need shortened bump stops and you wont be able to carry a lot of weight

    Get some rear sedan SSSL springs (sedan springs are lower than ute ones), you wont be able to have bump stops because it will be metal on metal. I had that on my ute for about 6 months, was soo low, by far one of the lowest around, but the ride is absolutely terrible. So I guess you have to ask yourself, height for comfort....
