wtb spring or coil spacer n snorkel
Hey I have just bought my first io
It's at 12/2001 has the kyb 2" lift front n back but the front sits like a drag car I just want to space the front up level
I'm running 225/75/16 bfg muddies also
And a snorkel where do I get these products from and I'm In Nsw but will pay freight cheers
lift
+1 to fordem post.
I don't think that KYB makes lift kit but standard shock and strut. (not that I have heard before anyway) To properly help you, more details are needed. Did you buy new spring, the "kingspring" maybe ?
If yes can you supply the ref number ? (2 types for the front, one must not be fitted to the Kyb strut). Once we know what you have on you car, we should be able to help you out. I have around the same lift with the same tyres.
Where about are you in NSW ? I am in ACT
No snorkel available, some "homemade" but nothing to bolt straight on from the shop.
Do you have some pictures ?
Happy io
I bought the car as it
I bought the car as it is
I'll try n grab the part number off the springs
I'm only going off what the guy I bought it off has said was in it
The springs are yellow so it's possible that they are king springs
Definitely has kyb shocks in it I'll try n post a pic up will do it this arv
Sorry bout posting it here
spring
The reference should be KMFS-900SP or KMFS-900. If you have the ref KMFS-900SP you are fine, if you have the ref KMFS-900, I would advised to replace them. You said that the front is lower, that could mean that you have the correct spring (KMFS-900SP) as they do not give 2 inch lift, the rear do.
I think that I have seen your, now, car advertised on Gumtree.
Some good reading about the 2 springs http://www.pajerio.com/forum/kingspring-and-kyb-mix
Happy io

What 2" KYB lift is that?
If you already have a 2" lift at the front you might not want to lift it any further - that's the point at which things get complicated and you have to consider either extending the struts or fitting strut spacers to prevent the struts from "topping out" and then you'll need diff drop spacers to prevent the front CVs from self destructing.
Maybe you should be considering lowering the rear to level it out.
I'm not aware of any 2" KYB lift "front & back" - maybe you could provide some more details - what exactly is in this kit? Does it come with springs, shocks & struts? Are the shocks & struts longer than the ones you removed? Both open & closed lengths?
What was your original ride height and what is it now?
This is not the sort of discussion for a "want to buy" thread, but it is necessary to identify what you need to buy.
