Hi guys,

I'm thinking about lowering the 6 to about 40mm all around. Would aftermarket springs with standard shock absorbers be sufficient? I know 40mm is hardly "slamming it", but would the ride/handling be compromised due to standard parts mixed with after market parts? Would it be a better idea to simply go for coilovers?

Cheers.

Kit

Better to go for uprated shocks with the springs mate as no doubt the standard stuff is on its way out after 8+ years

And you don't need to got for Coilovers for a 40mm drop a decent suspension kit will offer you what you want Thumbs up
