Also I'm after a pair of door mounted mirrors Is there any other models that I can look out for at a wreckers or anything that will go on?

B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Ah ok I'm gonna keep my eye out for some king springs How high do falcon springs sit without cutting? You cut one spring in half. don't do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollajones Posted January 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 You cut one spring in half. don't do it. I'm confused.... Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 When you use falcon springs you use one spring out of a falcon. Cut it in half and put it in your *E7* as two springs. Then you get defected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 It'll be legal height but its dodgy. Buying King Springs is a good option but it probably wont get you the desired height you want as they don't do a LOW ksev option. You could get springs custom wound at a price. I have Celica ST ultra low front (kings) in the rear of mine. Perfect streetable and low. Fronts are a different matter depending on struts etc, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Please explain how you will lower your first ksev with an angle grinder? Or 'getting the tools out' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
