pedders ultra low

[trenooo]

hey guys, thinking of buying a pair of second hand pedders ultra lows with air assist . these are of a vz ute, and i am just wondering how these will sit on a sedan?
will they sit higher than sedan ultra lows? or lower?
also does any one see a problem with using these? ( under the assumption they they will fit )
cheers

1. Yes, they will fit as such.
2. They will sit higher, since they are from a ute, they will be stiffer than sedan springs for carrying loads.
3. Only problem I forsee is the ride will be brutal in the back seat.

will most prop sit lower due to ute springs made for a lighter weight then a sedan

Err... what?

I suggest you jump on redbook and check kerb weights. In the VZ an exec sedan is 30kg less than a ute and in the SS variants the sedan is 45kg heavier, true.

But the ute is designed to take 650kg in the tray thus has stiffer, taller springs.

ok so how bad are we talking about ride wise? im also planning on keeping the same shocks, and will handling improve?

do you know what part number the coils are?if you do i can give you a rough height, most people put sedan coils (pedders) in there ute to get them lower so they will probably be ok, what the air assist? is it an airbag.

Original shocks?
Have fun with that.

Ride, How much do you like your spine the way it is?

Handling, no.
