    I'm not too sure of the top of my head can measure when I get home from work but it only just tucks at the back sorta almost right above tyre and the front is higher.

    My back drop more then I thought it would but the cars level so not worried.

    Might look lower in the picture's cause ultras tuck alot more then mine does.

    If you have passengers when they pull you over to measure it everyone can get out of the car, it must be measured unladen (its on the vicroads website I read it a couple of months back).


    Oh and stock springs in mine they have surely sagged hehe

    Just for reference sake, the SL, SSL, and SSSL in the King Springs part numbers do not refer to how low they are. They are only for identification. A spring can have an SSSL part number and be a super low just like it can be an SL and be ultra low.

    I just had a read of the modification page on the Vicroads web site and cut and pasted this bit, not sure if they measure it fully laden or not??

    V6 & V8 springs are exactly the same. There's bugger all weight difference between an ECOTEC & LS 1.
