    Hey Guys,

    Quick question, can the Front Struts, Springs and Rear springs out of a VR V6 Calais be put into a VS V8 Calais? Take in mind the Springs are King Springs SSL.

    Springs can do, as long as their both live axle or IRS. I have no idea about struts. How ever the V8 will sit lower on V6 springs.

    Rears are the same, front struts are the same but the springs are different in the front, if you ssl for a 6 I would imagine that the V8 would sit on the wheels
