Guest cul08r Guests Posted 06/11/03 05:40 AM Share Posted 06/11/03 05:40 AM I'm lowering the XR6T (sedan) and want to drop it quite substantially. I know there are a few ppl here who have done it, and I am after ACCURATE measurements for the purpose of comparison.I think this topic is elsewhere, but not in the detail I am chasing.Could ppl please write below or PM or email me, with all the following details.MANUFACTURER: e.g. Kings, Lovells, Herrod etc.Spring Code: e.g. Superlow maybe KSFL xxxFront before:Front after:Rear before:Rear after:Measuring from: e.g. Guard lip to centre of hub (rim) or guard lip to bottom of rim etc. If measured to the rim, pls include rim size, as the measurement will change if you are running 17's, 19's etc.ThanksAndrew Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/7323-superlow-coils-for-the-xr6t/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ride isn't too harsh just right. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/7323-superlow-coils-for-the-xr6t/#findComment-63136 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cul08r Guests Posted 10/11/03 12:53 AM Share Posted 10/11/03 12:53 AM Thanks for the info so far guys. I would really like to know ride height before too, and the code numbers for the springs too.
