GQ spring fit ????? and what sort of lift ??

We assume that standard GQ springs will give a 2" lift.

I fitted 2" GQ springs and got a 4" lift, and cookie monster fitted standard GU coils and also got a 4" lift :?

4inch gee dont wont that much (although would bring my headlights down to normal) was told by a bloke that the ass end is sagging by 40 mm atm so standard springs would get me back up there $198 to take it up 70-80mm same price but would need new shocks(probibly do anyway)

I can do kings springs if you are prejudice against Lovells.

No they were not fitted for $150. It was supply only see above posting. It is fairly easy to replace the rear springs. I live on the Gold Coast and 4WDSTUFF lives near Ormeau. Come down to Ormeau and have a play and you can look at my springs at the same time. PM me and i will give you my contact number if you are interested. :roll:

Ok guys I tried to change my springs this morning but the springs i've got (supposivly GQ) are the WRONG size 150mm OD my paj has springs that are 180mm OD Read NO WAY THEY WILL FIT... now whats wrong here:
#1 Supplier gave me the wrong springs
#2 Nh pajs are different than later models
#3 Info about gq springs fitting is wrong
I'm going to call my supplier this arvo to make sure the are GQ springs but for now I cant do a thing

I think your supplier has supplied the wrong springs.

Try a search - the 180mm diameter has been quoted on this forum before, probably by Frank because he's done this himself. I also know of another (former) Paj owner who installed GQ springs in an NH LWB. Your 150mm springs are not standard GQ coils.

Edit: Look here.

Good luck,

Scott

Dude I must have given you Range Rover coils :oops:

My brother inlaw has GQ ones that he is willing to part with so we could meet in the city and swap them over or if you want them for the weekend you could come for a drive. Tell your wife you will take her to Mt Tamborine for dinner and just drop in to Logan Village on the way.

If not I will give you your $30 back as the springs are worth more to me than you.

Give me a pm or call.

Sorry from Shane

I still have GQ fronts here :?
