Cheers fellas, I stripped all the back out and it went high as a kite at the back

Want the weight saving but want it to sit right. I've put it all back in for now. Going to finish off the spraying and get some 90mm for the back. Will I need to debolt the rear arches?

I thought it seemed lower like 100mm or so. So with 90mm and stripped rear I should be looking at a look of 60mm with full interior?

here you go

[QUOTE=smcgsi16v]Fitted my new 90mm rear springs today.
Originally it had 40mm rears and with a stripped rear end they made no difference, it sat at the original height. So I figured wth some 90mm ones it will drop it about 50-60mm.

Before

After

Much better now, and sits about right I think.

One more thing.

I am thinking of using www.coilspring.co.uk for the custom 90mm springs. I currently have PI 50mm springs and uprated shocks ie a full PI suspension kit. Is it as simple as a straight swap 90s for the 50's? Don't have to worry about them falling out or out stupid?

Sweet, so the 90's won't fall out or anything? Ain't too up on suspension.
