    Sweet..
    I just fitted khrl46slhd springs to the rear of mine, some say supers some say ultras? The rear tire is just in the guard with 19's.. Getting yours lowered will make all the difference..

    Not sure on the hub to guard measurement, Just tried to check then when i got home but couldn't find a measuring tape :(

    Thanks, I really like the look of them atm. Just really want to see it dumped on UL and SL ( front )

    4wd spec just for you.
    4wd spec click here
    same as any country pack suspension :p

    should be good to see yours lowered though.
    should look very tidy.

    Just lower it and then see how it fits with the wheels and tire combo, my rears are not rolled but the front is..
    Where did you get that color match of your car made up?

    Not yet mate

    Want to do this car properly not rushed like my old VT, So just gonna drive it around like this for a while until i have the cash to do Monroe Struts, Monroe Struts, Springs and Nolathane Bushes all at once, So could be a month or so

    Whoever asked for the hub to guard measurement it is 380mm

    Hoping 4 it too look like this, Measured 60mm from the current 4wd height and it hopefully will "almost tuck rim" rear and hopefully a little tyre on the front.

    That looks great that height.. Mine is that height and its not that hard for a ride either.. Are you going to lower it or get a shop to do it?
