can anybody confirm the exact distance lower vrx springs are from standed exec springs? thank you

just shy of 30mm - on a TJ1 such as mine - it made about 30mm difference at the front and maybe 25mm at the back. So whereas the car had a slight nose up attitude its now slighly nose down as such. See pic courtesy Mysti from a recent run.

hmmm so not that much lower...i went and purchsed vrx springs awhile back......dam so not that much lower :(

maybe ill sell them and buy lower springs

Well you could always go and get them compressed.

compressing springs is not safe

compressing springs is not safe

well that's just an illogical statement given that you're also stating you want to go even lower than any factory spec.

what?....i said i want to go low spring in my car......i didnt say anythign about me wanting to put spring compressors on my springs.......am i going senile here ....or is it everybody else

you go to a suspension place and get your springs compressed - or reset if you like - to a lower ride height. THEN fit them to the car. That way you get your lower ride height without the harsh ride of aftermarket springs


Nothing to do with spring compressors fitted to the car...

can anyone confirm if the vrx springs are the exact sam part number as the std ralliart springs . .. .

and does anyone have spring rate data????

yes ralliart springs are exactly the same as TJ Sports and VRX Springs.. in fact i actually have compressed TJ Sports springs in my ralliart at the moment.. Reason for that? had them sitting around from my last TJ Sports.. decided it was easier to get them compressed and then fit them to the Ralliart at a later point.. meant having the car off the road for the least amount of time

and ive done 15,000kms with my compressed springs and no probs.. its a very common way of lowering a car, dont no what the carry on is about... :confused:

how much is it (at a suspension place) to compress springs... i have king lows and super lows on mine.. and im not exactly happy with the ride height... see pics.. (mainly the front)

thanks mate... pity i dont have a pedders where i live.. we have a carline place that does pedders stuff... so maybe if they cant do it.. i think there is one an hour or so away... do u think i need all 4 done or just the front to even it up?
