Front too high 

Posted By : Martin Bryant, 20-Jun-2005, 05:35pm

Hi

I have been looking at many previous threads about front springs and shocks, because my Spitfire sits too high at the front.

I really don't like the look of it when I am walking towards the front of the car. The front springs currently fitted are 9 inches.

I'd like to lower it, I have seen Moss do springs at 7.25 inches, which I'd probably invest in, but what about the shocks?

Between Koni, Spax and Gaz, there seems to be a real mix of people saying a certain brand is awful, or didn't ride too well, then someone else says the opposite.

If anyone has experience of changing front shocks & springs do you recommend them?

Also, what else should I need, e.g spacers etc? Should I change the bushed while I'm doing this?

Is it an easy job for me to do in a day?


Thanks

Martin
