Hi, im new here so be nice.

I have a 2005 VRX AWD. Fantastic vehicle. I use it for what it was made for and frequent dirt roads. To make life easier I was wondering if anyone made slightly taller springs for the AWD. I'm not after much, maybe an inch at most.

Any feed back or ideas would be appreciated.

I believe Lovells make heavy duty raised rear springs for the FWD sedan intended for towing use which would probably raise the height about 20mm at the rear. I have Lovells heavy duty standard height springs all round which reasonably closely approximated the original ride height front and rear. K-Mac I believe can also make custom height springs. Fitting camber/caster adjustable strut tops (e.g. K-Mac) at the front might also get you a few mm there.

The catalog I have access to online only shows a listing up to TJ model which shows front and rear available for TJ, but I suggest calling Lovell's Tech Help.

3 years ago, I needed some help finding some coil spring pad height raisers.

Ask for Mike in the tech help area.

He is very helpful.

I have a set of the Lovells CFR-31 (front) and CRR-40 (rear) springs fitted to the front & rear of my VRX AWD and must say they made no real difference to the ride height that I can tell. Measured from the ground, the tops of the arches for the front & rear guards are now about 68cm. What is noticeably different, though, is that the ride is firmer than before. That should reduce bottoming-out over rough ground. The rear springs also compress less when hitching my van to the car.

FWIW, according to http://www.lovellsauto.com.au/dist.php?d=9, members of the Fast Magna Owners Club get a 50% discount when purchasing direct. I did.
