can any one help me lower my Rolla

i got leaf springs at the back witch i did not think i could lower it

but i think i am wrong if you know how to do it please help me lol

kind regards Myles

hi mate ,the best to lower your roller is lowering blocks at the rear and lowerd springs up front

Search. This has been covered MANY times before.

 

Take the packs apart, and start adding/ subtracting/ flipping leaves. Either that, or pay a professional.

As Redwarf said you can take the leafs apart yourself, which is probablty the cheapest thing to do,

Lowering blocks are pretty cheap and you can do it yourself,

You can also get them reset by professionals, it cost me $350 which included adding an extra leaf to make it ride better

Keeping in mind its a really bad ride in the back for passangers lol

has be covered many times before but heres a cost scale

 

flipping/adding subtracting - $0 to $50 - for some spare leafs

lowering block kit - $120

reset professionally - $300

 

all require a few hours and some basic tools and mechanical aptitude

and away you go...

Not really. Its cheap its easy but its not the best way of doing cause of the extra torsional twisting (or whatever its called) where the axle will tend, or want to wind up every time you put the power down. Have a google for it.

I'd be going for the option that redwarf said

Find a mate with a press and straighted the main leaf like I did.

i was wondering if i could put king springs in the back n get rid of the leaf speings any 1 ???

how much lower do you want them? i can get them reset or new lower ones made thru work. PM here or on msn :hmm:

yeah easy as, just convert your rear leaf sprung rear end to a coil sprung control arm rear end.

a drive in drive out conversion cost of around $2000.

 

read this for further information and education, its a really good read:

carbibles suspension

 

and on the page look at:

 

your leaf sprung rear end

a coil sprung rear end with control arms

a coil sprung rear end with parallel 4 link and panhard rod

 

and see how they are different and it will give you an idea of the work involved.

everything is possible. However, buy a KE70, it'd be cheaper and easier.

it all depends on your budget mate, and this has been covered in the above posts
