What did you do on your car today?

[bye2u]

Ordered these last night...

very nice

[DORA_ANNE]

It's pretty good Stacey ,I Have noticed it handles better around corners "The new wheels & tyres may be helping with that as well "
And the car naturally sits closer to the road which makes the ride even Better IMHO ....

As I Mention the back is sitting a wee bit higher ,But apparently the springs take a few weeks to settle ... lol I have 2 wheels in my boot to help the back Drop .

Yes I Would recommend in getting it lowered Stacey & The cars look pretty neat when lowered .....

[DORA_ANNE]

Looks good Dora

Thank You Paul It's been kinda fun doing little mods on my car .....

But I haven't half finished yet lol

One more step closer, still got that rego label to go

[SIR-VRX]

Rego Label and the floor mats. Got the floor mats lined up hopefully. the rego label may be a bit harder

Got a bigger battery installed and an upgraded earth cable.
Battery is an Deka Intimidator 9A34R. 770 CCA (but the guy I dealt with has had them up to around 1000 CCA on a load tester) and up around 55 Ahr.

Cost me $330, retail is up around $370 for the battery








I also put down a deposit on getting some Coilovers fitted, locally. Again got a a pretty good deal. Haha, multiple car clubs. Lol.

Got My Car Lowered 30mm with King springs ......

Back is Still sitting a bit higher then Front .

Yup, the back will always sit higher on Kings, don't expect it to drop overtime because it wont.... The idiots redesigned the rear springs, they used to be 5mm 'lower' and progressive rate, now they are linear. Problem is that 5mm extra height in the rear is the difference between the pitch of nose causing the car to scrape on alot more driveways. (Yes I have done a comparisson between the new and old design of King rear springs for the CJ)

[DORA_ANNE]

Yes Smithy you are spot on in what you are saying ....

As with the back a little higher I have scraped a couple of times on different driveways & speed humps Grrrrr , And thats going over carefully ..... Thanks for the infro

[Skorps]

Yes you are spot on there. I have kings as well. Same problem scrape on more driveways. Even though add the front airdams and v lip which gives it more to scrape.

[DORA_ANNE]

I Have ordered my airdams Stephen ....Ohhhh so more scraping

Can I Ask Stephen What size king springs did you end up getting ?

Mine are 30mm drop .
