    Roll guards, thats all I did in my wagon. Put a set of sedan springs in it, and we're set

    I took mine down to a reputable smash repair place, and they done it for me. Cost me $50 a side, no cracked paint, all too easy. You can try it yourself, but I'd rather take it somewhere

    yeah i think it maybe worth the $50 a side! why do you recommend sedan springs? its got standard low king springs in it already , have 20's, Sedan springs and rolled guards make it look nice and low but legal?

    Well owning a wagon (think its the same for utes) springs don't sit as low, and are HD rated (heavy duty), sedan ones arent, so putting sedan ones in the ass of mine has it sitting lower then wagon ultras, which aren't really even low (for me anyway).

    I stuffed around so much with my old VR wagon, using wagon springs, and still wasent low enough for me, so just did what everyone said to do in the first place, sedan springs.

    I'm currently running sedan super lows from a VS (KHRL-46SL) so the extra weight of the later model wagon makes them pretty low.

    Technically anything under lows is illegal as its more then 1/3 of original suspension travel bla bla bla, but mines is still over 100mm, just... lol

    Heres how mine sits currently:
