Didnt take a before picture because i thought i had one (deleted it a while ago)
Used spax front shocks and springs.. I think it needs to settle but its miles better than standards.

Me and Shaun took the back springs off but that rubber/metal thing that holds it fell out at the top of the spring So to save anything serious happening we put the standard spring back in place and its all fine now. (any help regarding that is welcome please thankyou lol)


This is the best side on picture i have before we lowered it:


And now:



Any comments welcome!

It'll drop a little more, not a vast amount though.
