simpo Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 you got to be carefull with them springs. compressing them in to a smaller damper will cause them to buckle under load.I got a set of rover lowering springs in my shed do you think they would be better? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weetec Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 it certainly would be a better match up. the only resaon why i commented on this is i have done this before. if you look through the rear wheel with the car under load youll see the spring over-compressed and leaning to one side in the middle. and what happens to a spring under tension it trys to expand... so inn effect it will over stretch the damper should you hit a deep pot hole, not by much will cause abnormal spring action..... on compression, for me the spring would hit the dust cover. a few hundred miles it will distort the spring.
