With lowering the car should we lower the back 2 inches or more? ** Brand New ** Superlow King SpringsFord BA XR6 & XR8 Sedan (other models available)Full set - 4 coils, 2 front + 2 rearOn the world's fastest racetracks, on the street, on the toughest outback terrain there is.

XtRmn8 570Nm @1800rpm Donating Members 2,441 Member For: 21y 7m 4d Gender: Male Location: Perth, WA Posted 06/08/05 02:26 AM Share Posted 06/08/05 02:26 AM They are the same part numbers as what was fitted to my car. Its not a bad price, but I know that trade they are about $100 a set. A lot op people have these springs fitted and they are very good and make your call look a lot better. Ride height will be guard-on-tyre give or take a few mm. SSL at the back is the way to go because it will make your car sit level front and back.

Max Power Member 381 Member For: 20y 11m 23d Location: MENAI, NSW Posted 07/08/05 11:01 AM Share Posted 07/08/05 11:01 AM Ive got the same and had them fitted a couple of weeks ago. Found that the front didnt drop at all from the standards and is still the same height (360mm from arch to centre cap with 19" wheel. Waiting to see if they drop a bit with time like Ive heard they do as they still look too high imo. Rears is perfect height.Max Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/19263-superlow-king-springs/#findComment-279898 Share on other sites More sharing options...

bugster70 Donating Members 1,326 Member For: 19y 11m 23d Location: Canberra Posted 08/08/05 01:11 AM Share Posted 08/08/05 01:11 AM FR33DY, yes you have the correct part numbers. As the others have said, you need the SSL's at the back to get the level sill effect. The XR's are already lower than XT's out of the factory, and the front doesn't need to be lowered as much. Check out the King Springs catalogue for more detail - if you go to the Superlow applications list at the back of the document, you'll see that they specify the part numbers you have quoted.You should also note that as the rear is being lowered to that degree, you are more than likely to end up with the car resting on its bump stops. You should probably take 1/2" or so off the bump stop when you're fitting the springs.

I am wrapped with the ride height and ride quality has not been affected.
