hey how are you all? I want to deck my ke55 but I'm not sure where to get the lowering blocks for the rear... For those that have decked there rollas what steps are needed!!! for rear?

 

 

Cheers Richard.

You can makke your own lowerinng blocks to the sizee you wannt or head to autobahn as they sell them. Longer U bollts will be needed aswell. Rolla_boy is the king of low for ke sedans..

The best way to lower the rear of your corolla is to get the leaves reset, or if you are dodgy like me, you can flip 2 leaves over, and it will put it on the bump stops. Lowering blocks suck

Agreed, lowering blocks do suck.

 

I had 2 rear leaves reset with the eyes reversed with 2 new leaves as well as a new leaf in my transverse leaf and it reset for 200....

 

Resetting 2 rear leaves should be cheap as chips...

yup ... when it comes to corolla mods you're definitely got a guru there in rollaboy ...

 

as he said, the ideal way of lowering a leaf sprung car is to have the springs reset ... closely followed by just flipping springs ... but I have to admit the only problem i've had with lowering blocks is that the ol' beastie is more or less on bump stops and the ride is fairly unforgiving ... but then again ... they're 3" blocks :'(

yea don't get lowering blocks does the same job as flipping the springs, the best value would be to get them reset, i have mine flipped atm and there is no suspension travel in the rear at all, its funny watching girls titties bounce haha but reallll dangerous so i will be getting them done properly now

what about just flipping a single, not two springs? is that going to lower it, but not as much?

how about you invert a spring pack to bring the axle up higher while also increasing the spring rate to lower the car?

yeah good advice above, definately don't go lowering blocks. at $100 anyway!

 

rather invert the leaf pack and add a leaf if wanted, its the best way to lower a mild amount,

which retains the original suspension travel.

 

else if after more lowering, invert and reset at a slightly lower height.

how about you invert a spring pack to bring the axle up higher while also increasing the spring rate to lower the car?

 

 

 

what do you mean by invert a spring pack like flip them over?

got any photos

with my 55 i just flipped the whole pack over as they are and it sits hard on the bumpstops
