Unsure if putting lovell sports lows on my car would really lower it much, its already lower from factory with the sports suspension, the lovells are supposed to drop it 25mm and settle at around 30-35mm, on standard verada's. i'm pretty happy with the back, chuck two people in back seat n the tyres are inline with the arch almost so considering just putting them on the front, would i need to compresses them about half and inch more to get a 30mm drop or will they be fine the way it is? i believe my stock suspension is same as TJ Vrx/sports.
cheers for your help

The lovells lows will drop it 25mm IF it's standard suspension. If your verada is indeed sports suspension, it'll only drop maybe 10-15mm, maybe sag to 20mm lower if you're lucky.
To get a 30mm drop you'll need to put superlows in (50mm drop over standard), or compress the lows (superlows would make more sense).

hmm yeh, looks like lows for rears will be ok since i wasn't after much drop from them, and just swap my lows for superlows. time to post in the for sale section, thanks mate.

p.s. can i get some facts about compressing, what does it involve, costs, how long does it take to do, will ride quality be sacrificed etc..

cost me $180 drive in drive out to get compressed to any height you want....
the springs are a tiny bit softer now than before, ride quality is improved over what they were, but, you gotta look at the shocks, i had to mod the bumpstops (well i didnt they did it for me)
do it :badgrin:
i was going to lower my car some more, and i would have but where i live now my tow hooks scrape when going in and out of the drive damn it!! if i still lived where i used to :badgrin:

ive got super lows at the front and lows on the back of my TE, where would u reckomend i should go to get the back springs compressed? and i have lovell shocks all round, does that make a difference if i get the springs compressed, will they be affected or will they just be a bit more compressed permaanately, i honestly have no idea wat wil be affected as u can probs tell:confused:
