Thanks Hydra, but my Kia can only handle an approx 1.5 inch... 3inch is way too much for her. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> But I'll keep that in mind if I can't find anything else, might be an option if I put back the original spring. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

In terms of the exact hieght 1.6 inch or something very close to that would be what I require if you have some already made. if you are willing to make some from scratch then I would like to measure it exactly and get back to you on that. Also could you PM me the price(s). Cheers, <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

I've orginised the springs/shocks for the rear here in Aus. Looks like I'll get that extra inch after all. I will update with photos once everything arrives. Got a new grill aswell so it should look a bit more <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/mrt.gif" alt="" /> combined with the extra height. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Cool ... your way ahead of me <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" /> Well just another update a few more questions for you guys. I'm waiting on some spacers from Everet but as I know these custom made items take time... and unfortunately I'm running out of time (I start my new job in another state at the end of next month) and I have already paid for the rear springs and shocks to be fitted. If Everet is unable to get the spacers to me soon I will have to ask the suspension shop to make me some front springs aswell so i don't lose my money (these things are made to order so no refunds <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" /> ). I'm worried if I do need to get the longer front springs ( i think I'll only end up with approx 1 inch of movement/articulation) the suspension shop doesn't recommend this... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> has anyone fitted longer springs to the original front strut or the same size KYB? If so any probs? Secondly, once I get thsi shorted I'm looking to get some body spacers fitted in Melb... I see that Roger Brown (I think) sells these...anybody know if they fit on a longbody sporty? If so...how easy are they to install, i read the instrct and it says that you should replace the nuts on the rear then do the front...but wouldn't that bend the thread/bolts or worse break it as you lift the front? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> This guy http://www.4wheelnoffroad.com/04body.html didn't replace any of the nuts as he went along...I would og thought this to be the best way as to not break or bend the threads/bolts. Anyway any feedback would be appreciated.
