        once you lower it, youll notice that the wheels are actually tucking under the guards,

          nice one, will have a crack at installing them tomorrow,
          anyone come across any hurdles in the swap?
          looks as though it should be fairly straightforward.

            its all straight forward

            if you want borderline ultra slammage

            give fronts 45mm of coil left
            and rears all the way down

            and dont forget to get a wheel alignment asap!

                are your going to roll your lips if you want the wheels tucked in?

                  will see how we go, im not after going superslam at this stage, just dropping it enough to get rid of most of the gap. if the time comes that i want to give it a belly ache im not too worried if i roll the guards

                    fair call.

                    let us know how you go with putting the coils on the car.

                    we all loves pics.

                      found some time to get the coils on last night and this morning...
                      picks for kicks:







                      gonna wind the coils up to a decent height for the moment until the sj shire decide to spend a bit of their allowance on our roads.

                      putting the coils in is insanely simple for those thinking of doing them, definately worthwhile, wish hottuning gave you a ratchet spanner with them though..

                      gave your measurements a shot on the back dom but started rubbing tyre going out the drive haha. will most likely find a place to get my guards done when i go for down for a wheel alignment

                            cheers guys

                            BY GOD is the ride harsher than the stock suspension! sticks on the road a hell of a lot better though no more boatyness round corners.
                            raised coils an inch all round from the photos and the rears still scrub when i hit bumps at speed so will go another halfinch to inch and should fix that right up
