Will Repco know what I'm talking about or do I need to go to Pedders or someone like that?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to reset the springs eithernolathane make a lowering kit for the BA utes, part #47952 that kit will only lower it by an inch but that's about all you will get with stock 17's. You say you have 20's? then you can use Nolathane #47950 that will get you down about 1.5" and if you are really keen, a set of #17951 will lower you about 2 inches.I should also mention that #47951 are not listed in the nolathane catalogue as being for out utes, they are for diffrent models but will also fit. you will need to buy 2 kits (one for each side) and they come with all apropriate mounting hardware.#47952 1"#47950 1.5"#47951 2" (bigger wheels required)Also worth noting is that they are not legal in some (all?) states, not that annyone really cares. And yes those numbers are in the right order.Sorry for the thread mining but I thaught it was about time that somone dispelled the myth that you could not get lowering blocks for our utes.hope this helpsLuke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
