Posted 13/11/10 03:00 AM Share Posted 13/11/10 03:00 AM Pete,as luck would have it, have just fitted mine (1hr 5mins you slack b@st@rds)(mind you, a hoist and an extra set of hands helps......LOL). KFFL-40SSL FrontKFRL-68SSL RearPictures attached. Couldn't go any lower due to driveway issues - not to mention the XForce 3.5"exhaust and speed hump ridden Brisbane. Many thanks to Pat at Wholesale Suspension for the advice and service.Hope this helps.

I think the + is the same as going 68SSSL.Apparently by putting the SSSL in the back it sits the car flat instead of being nose down?(Did you also have a 6 mm shim kit fitted A few weeks after install?)Pete Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/71636-lowering-my-g6e-turbo/#findComment-1055522 Share on other sites More sharing options...

My problem is loads in the boot occassionally plus driveway - wasn't willing to risk the rear SSSL's for that reason. Imagine another 15mm out of the rears would sit sweet if you don't have that to contend with. Very happy with this result for my circumstances..... excellent.

Ok maybe not..... Ive also had them cold compress the springs so they don't sag after a few weeks, they are settled on right away and haven't dropped at all..

Posted 20/11/10 06:13 AM Share Posted 20/11/10 06:13 AM Nice stuff PC.... that looks great! V happy with mine after a week of driving - much better control at speed; the airey faireys gone, and no driveway or carpark arguments. Simple but solid fix!

If so by how much?To the guys who already have their G6E/G6E-T lowered, has the ride changed much (harsh etc) ?Is the car still legal height?
