Default Just lowered the XR6 ST :)

Hey guys i got the car back from the panel beaters last week and she was ready to throw in her new springs and shockers! (For those of you that read my thread about 3 collisions in 3 months )

Here is some pictures guys! I put in Kings super lows with matching shortened stiffer ultima shockers, did it my self of coarse It doesn't scrape over anything, unless i take speed bumps faster than 10km/h! BTW it handles like its 400kg lighter, good thing i did the shockers too!

The new suspension actually feels more comfortable and responsive to small bumps than the original XR suspension!

Looks awesome sitting low like that.

How much did it set you back for the springs and shocks.

i rekon it gives it a meaner look when they sit low like that, looks a million bucks mate
