    Default These springs right for my VX Calais Series 1?

    Looking at getting them off eBay

    part numbers as below


    Front - KHFL-47 SSL
    Rear - KHRL-46 SSSL

    Would these be right to install with FE2's or Monroe GT's??

    Thanks

    (confirming part numbers)

    Once you install them you no longer have FE2. You have Kings with FE2 swaybar.

    The fronts are right, but I don't know where you got the rear part number from. Ultra Low rears are KHRL-46SLHD

    I called Kings and he sayd the KHRL-46 SSSL and the KHRL-46SLHD are exactly the same, so no worries there.

    Also, what shocks should I go for? Monroe or KYB? So on (will also need the camber kit)

    I would go KYB I've had both and prefer the KYB though both are similar I got a better ride feel of the KYB's but I'm sitting on SSL's all around.

    And yes you've got the right idea with the camber kit they will need to be done.

    $675 for a full set of KYB shortened shocks and Kings to match. Pickup from Acacia Ridge, or $8 delivery to you. 4pt camber kit to suit is $179.
