Featured Replies

okay this thought has been flying around my brain for sometime. it's if i can lower the suspension on my 85' GL D/R 4WD wagon. i mean i'm putting a body kit later on but if i can lower it it be better.( better for street cruising ;) .) i'm just curious to know. (i'm not going to lower it. just pulling a subaru styles with it)

Not sure I understand... Styles DID lower his.....And since you already know that, your best bet may be to look at how he did it;)

Sprigs run $50-$100 depending on where you get them. Only real modifications needed are a little grinding on a piece of the front strut.. $.99 for a grinding disc for my angle grinder. A spring compressor is a good thing to have to take the original springs off, but there are other ways to do it. I always use the compressor because they can be rented at autozone for nothing.

 

I'm sure Brad's write up will be more in depth than mine, but that should get you started.

Wow, beautiful white wagon!

 

Can you take a few pictures of your wagon with a beautiful background, because I want a picture of it for my desktop!

Thanks

 

I'll see what I can do. North Texas is a little lacking in scenery, but I'm sure I can find something.

 

What you don't like my garage thats piled with crap?;)
