Superlow King Springs, with Pedders Gas Comfort shocks

[Walkinshaw]

King SL's all round, sits WAY too high for my liking. I had the exact springs in my EA and it say way lower.

[FG8PSI]

heres mine

got kings s/low all round with pedders short shocks

[stockstandard]

probably have enough already, but mine has something the others dont - hubcaps!

Suspension is king superlows and monroe GTs

[DUMTEF]

King ultra low all around, with sports ryder shocks front and rear

[XCH45R]

king ultra low? never heard of them ones

[shoey50]

ive got the same king springs super super lows also know by some as ultra
sorry only pic i got cant really see the front but oh well

[DUMTEF]

pedders in geelong have also told me that when u ask for super low pedders springs that there is actually 2 or 3 different models of superlow springs that they deal with. but yeah king ultra or super super low same deal.

[XCH45R]

so when people say that they have superlows in the rear and ultra lows in the front they dunno what there talking about? lol

shoey yours sits low for superlows.. sure u havent got the angle grinder out and adjusted ur rear springs? :P

[EFFalcon]

shoey said he's got super super lows or 'ultra' lows.

Not true. BI6TIM swapped his superlows for ultralows to drop his car a little more. For 6cyl falcon EA-EL the king part number for superlow is KFFL-26SL/KFRL-27SL and the ultralows are KFFL-26SSL/KFRL-27SSL

[XCH45R]

ahh ok

does anyone know the difference between super lows and ultra lows?

in that case i may get ultra's for the rear and supers for the front. inurance! lol

I was told by a parts seller guy that SSL was super super low, and "ultra low" are the SSSL (not sure how dumped, but these are "barely above bump stops" springs). I have seen these, but so far only for commodores.

[Walkinshaw]

About 15mm i think.

I'm thinking about ditching the superlows for ultralows allround and sportsryder front struts

[shoey50]

basicall ultra lows are super super just people call them different things even though as said before in the book it is listed as KFFL-26SSL/KFRL-27SSL ssl meaning super super
when i brought my springs they didnt have the listing in the book for it only super lows so i had to ring and enquir about them hope that help

i would recommend ultra low front and superlow back i have ultralow or super superlows all round and the back of my car sits just a little lower than the front.
when you put a full tank you really notice the differance

Do you find when you go to full lock, or when turning that the tyres rub against the front guards? My mate has put superlows in his ef, and he had to get the guards flaired becuase he had major issues with the tyres rubbing.

[shoey50]

i had i hammer the lip on my gaurds in easy to do just be patient with it and i have ssl all around and mine sit pretty much the same slighlty high in front but if yo put sl in the rear the rear would sit to high

not at all
but as you can see i have standard fairmont mags with 225 60 15s
no scrape whatsoever
but will easily hit bump stops on back with sub in boot or full tank

[XCH45R]

when my car was on its belly i had to roll the front guards, and if i had a fat in the back the assend would scrub if i toook a corner too quick

[EBII Fairmont]

I guess also, it started after he got rid of the 16" tickfords and put on BA 17".

[Age182]

i want to lower mine to but wanna keep it legal too
whats the best way to go

[EBII Fairmont]

THe thing I hate about lowering a car is how easy it is to ruin your. My brothers xf ghia has been lowered 3" and he can never enter the driveway. or go over a speed hump without scraping. Don't you guys thinks it gets to a point were it is over the top?

[xxxc]
