Hey guys,

Looking to lower the car (2001 KJ Verada) from stock and was just wondering what (if any) considerations there might be with having an LPG tank in the back. The weight of it (especially when full) does make a noticeable difference in ride height under normal circumstances.

I've read here that many have had superlows in the front and lows in the back in order to compensate for magna's apparent higher front ride height. Would this work fine with mine or would it still appear uneven due to the tank?

FamilyWagon had the same issue, he has lows in the front and SP in the rear, Super Lows are not good, they remove pretty much all your suspension travel thus why so many people are getting rid of them

I can provide everything you will need be they SL, L or SP plus shocks if needed and fitting if needed

Yeah, had lows all round in the KJ which looked great but once i installed gas, it looked too low in the back and as Mal said, went SP's in the rear to jack it up a little and now it looks like it did before i installed the gas.

Thanks guys, very useful. Though (new to this) you may have to translate 'SP' for me . :)

lows are 45mm drop sp is a 30mm drop
i got lpg on mine with the 45mm low on the front and splow 30mm on the back its pretty even
note madmagna does a good price for springs for these
