January 17, 201214 yr comment_578237 It won't help looking for wishbones! What are you trying to do exactly? Report
January 17, 201214 yr comment_578252 you get new strut INSERTS, and lowered springs. you need lowered leaves for the back, and short stroke shocks if you like. Report
January 17, 201214 yr Author comment_578275 just tryin to lower it stress free... but all i've done is stress about it... Report
January 18, 201214 yr comment_578416 I think you are stuggling with the terminology. You can't buy a complete strut for a KE30. You will need to buy lowered springs for the fron - King Springs - KFFL-15 Then you will need to find a strut insert to go in your existing strut housing. Well you don't have to, but the ride will be pretty shit. For the rears, you will need to either get your leaf springs reset, or mix and match the leaf combination if you have the skills. There is plenty of information on how to do that if you do a decent search on this forum. Report

January 20, 201214 yr comment_578941 You can buy lowering blocks for around $90 from autobarn/ repco etc in 1/2/3/4" lower Report
January 20, 201214 yr comment_579092 $580 is a bit rich! remember that you want a stiffer set up if you are lowering so an extra leaf is required. If you just put in lowering blocks you will hit bump stops A LOT. My local shop added a leaf and reversed my eyes for $200, but I removed them from the car myself. Report
