Here's my VS live axle with ultras in the rear and supers in the front. As you can see, still not exactly as low as you would want, but it's the best you can do apart from getting shorter spring insulators, which will dump it a fair bit more, but leave it illegal.

Cheers, Boojakz.

Hi Boojakz,

Your car looks great :w00t: :bow:

Did you put shocks/struts in it also or just the springs?

Cheers

I feel sorry for you because your car would also ride like a pig...especially with your standard shocks...everytime you jack it up...your springs will fall out of place and you will need to go through the dangerous procedure of getting someone to hold them in with their hands while lowering the jack. Not to mention that its most likely illegal...so yeah....but I guess you get what you pay for...

Cheers, Joe

its not illegal to get your springs reset and it works exactley the same as buying aftermarket springs. check it out in last months SC mag.

Yeahh it's not exactly illegal, but forget about having a warranty on your springs if you do it. Resetting them throws that warranty for the springs right out of the window. And the comment "you get what you paid for" is exactly right!

Cheers, Boojakz.
