steve_sport_scort Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 whats the most you can drop an escort before you have to change the shocks,i dont want to drop my car to much, cos i dont want to bugger the ride, , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosrep Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 As far as I know its 60mm. Its a personnel preference thing but I would'nt go that low - doesn't leave you with a lot of suspension travel! but then I prefer fast driving over looks. Its your choice at the end of the day.

simonh1 Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 I would say 40mm with out changing the shocks, 60mm is almost 2.5 inches you know........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Finesse Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 If you put 60mm springs on standard shocks - you don't need spring compressors to put the assembly back together! That's madness! 40mm IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
