Wanting to lower my gen 3 wagon down so the tyres just tuck, king springs no longer sells s-lows, only lows, my mate however has a set of preza gc8 s-lows in his shed on rooted struts. Will they fit my liberty wagon? And what struts would I use? I'm assuming my stock stuts would explode at 50mm's down...

I've got a set of sedan struts and low king springs, that'll be for sale soon. :)


I like to think of it as borrowing someone's car and driving it better than them.

Mmmmm are they the 30mm lows or the older 50m lows? Don't think 30mms will vet it low enough for me. I've got stock struts and springs, the springs have been cut a little bit (not much) abd it handles like a boat

No idea ...

 

But sedan ones will sit lower then wagon anyway.

Save and get coilovers. Springs won't get it that low and if they do it will ride and handle like absolute shit.
