REALLY bumpy ride
got my self a VT berlina 5L, Done around 260k, Ive stuck King Superlows in front and rear, installed sport munroe shocks and struts, replaced Tie rod ends, Link rod kit and just dont the Caster Bushes. Car is rolling on VT ss 17" rims and its the bumpiest ride ever. I live more out country way so the roads are shit house. Everyone else suffer from this? My last vt v6 had same set up but not as bumpy. The car i drive now is all over the place, rock hard and i can feel everylittle bump. Any ideas? appart from raising the hight
did you put in short shaft shocks ???? if not maybe bottoming out in the shock
on boost
mines the same, shit house roads everywhere and i feel everything
Smaller rims and higher profile tyres. About as much fun as upping the ride height though.
if you're driving on anything less than a new freeway i'm still a fan of FE2 suspension.

So you live out country and you decided to go superlow suspension...........riiiiiiiiiight.
Whatever floats your boat I guess.

Il refrase my self, i live in the Barossa Valley, not country as in out in the sticks.Originally Posted by acarmody
Yeah mate the short shocks, is there a difference in superlows if ur car is an 8 rather than a 6? just thinkin since mine is an 8 so will weigh more and cause stiffer ride
you could have stiffer springs
the good thing about getting older....more toysthe bad news more headaches
check the king springs catalogue to see if you got the right ones for your car http://www.kingsprings.com.au/catalo...e%20040203.pdf

My VS is exactly the same, doesn't matter what I do, still rides really rough.
Including car parts (VS, VT, VX, VY, WH etc), my WH Statesman, and other things listed on eBay.
according to that chart i may have the wrong springs, the springs i bought were off ebay and are king spring code KHFL-47SL, witch is superlow for v6 but rated as ultra low for v8's. that might explain a few things, anyone want to swap sring sets?
