Hey all, just curious, does anyone know if the complete strut tower from a TH will fit in a TJ?

Mums old car, now daily runabout has King Spring Superlows all round with Pedders sports Ryder shocks, whereas my TJ has just got lowered springs fitted with factory shocks, so ideally what I'd like to do is a complete swap of the entire tower, so I don't have to compress springs etc.

Cheers, Charlie

Do you know off the top of ya head what the superlow drop was? 75mm from standard?

I think my aurora SL are only 45mm drop all round.

will be at least 60mm...should drop the wheels/tyres right on top of the wheel arch..

here's a rough guide on the drop (it'll vary from car to car):

standard height:

lowered with super lows all round:

mine are Kings super lows on the front with KMAC custom springs that have the same amount of drop and all four Boge shock absorbers. and yes, my rear wheels are tucking
