O-Z Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 just want to clear something up. if i decide to lower my car, i will probably buy a suspension kit rather than just springs, so that it stiffens the suspension so i can lower without the worry of rubbing. on larkspeed they have 3 sectionssuspension kitsshock absorberssprings only if you buy a suspension kit, does that include the shock absorbers, the springs and everything you would need to buy? or will i need other things. am i right in saying the other 2 sections r if u want shocks on their own, and springs on their own????

O-Z Posted February 17, 2004 Author Share Posted February 17, 2004 also, if u get a suspension kit. is it worth upgrading the bushes at the same time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulo Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 suspension kits= springs+dampers getting springs and dampers will improve handling significantly more than just getting springs, and is ESSENTIAL if you drop 60mm or more uprated bushes are usually made out of polyurethene and are stiffer and much less likely to wear than ordinary rubber ones. as such replacing bushes with uprated ones will result in less suspension flex providing more precise steering. however they will make the ride harsher ( i think milsy had some experience with this??) polyflex bushes are good, but i think deflex ones are just as good and about half the price.

M4TT Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 i got the puma branded springs from larkspeed £65 for the springs class, they are a sister company to spax so are good and had no probs and should match up to spax shocks or the puma branded ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O-Z Posted February 18, 2004 Author Share Posted February 18, 2004 SO.....if i just want to stiffen my suspension so it doesnt go as low when going over bumps etc can i just buy the shocks and fit my standard springs on em? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
