g'day,
was just wondering if anyone that has just put a lift kit in their GQ or GU could tell me the height of the front coils while loaded (on the car) on flat ground?

i have just done a SPOA on my 45 and i dont like how high it sits, so i want to lower it 3 inches by using a coil conversion.

therefore i need to set the mounts up so it sits the same height it is now using a 6 inch coil lift and install 3 inch coils. or 7 and 4 depending on which is closer.

would rather keep it to a 3 or 4 inch coil, as that would allow more kits to lower/raise the vehicle for future purposes.

thank you very much for any help in advance.

Email Kings or Ridepro with corner weights. They will tell you where to go next.

wouldnt have a clue what my entire rig weighs let alone its corner weights.

all i wanted was a measurement between the top of the chassis rail and the top of the axle tube, for the front.

I have 4 inch coils will measure tommorow mine sits higher in the back than the front so i think you will have to work weight as well

Ok front 370mm rear 410mm this is roughly not exact measurement it could be out by 10 or 20mm as you can see weight is going to play part with the height that your springs sit
