    Have you thought about drop spindles? I heard that they are good because you keep your suspension travel and geomety. I'm not sure of this, other people who have actually used them will have a better idea. :errf:

    dang i recon i have a set. I pulled them out of my van to replace with super low springs which fell in on fitment (they are about 10-20mm taller from memory). I can go and get them if you like. I think that they are with my van at Morphet vale.

    how low did the super low springs make your van ? i have lowered the back so the guard just sits on top of the tyre i would like the same with the front . i have some lowered springs but compared to the standard ones they are not much shorter if you could get your old ones and measure them that would be great thanks

    to be honest i don't know how low it will sit as i don't have everything back in the car yet, I'm sure that I still have a few hundred kg's of gear to put back in. But i will be able to measure the springs for you. maybe later in the week when i get them back.
    Cheers.
