Vs Ute
Hi I’ve got a vs Ute 5L I’ve lowered it on supers in the front and ultras in the back and it’s still sitting higher than what I want, the front looks good but the rear still sits high. How do I go about getting it a bit lower. Do they make springs lower than ultra lows? I don’t want to cut them and make it ride any worse than it does, I have all lowered shocks and all thanks.

Is it well above 100mm off the ground?
If you put something in the tub that will lower it and make it unroadworthy if play anymore with it v

Hint...Lowering it more will make it ride worse....So you can't have your cake and eat it too

It won't go any lower once you are on the bump-stops.

Pedders make a extra low coil where you need shorter shocks. I had to add 10mm upper spacers to gain an extra 10mm in height but looked good.
