[Lowering Blocks Kit
Various heights available for most leaf spring cars, utes & 4WDs.]:confused:
I always thought it was the norm to raise 4WDs, not lower them,
unless of course you want to pimp that Series or Troopie

[ade]

there a shop in the uk, advertises in LRO that sells up to 4inch lowering kits for landrovers

I'm confused.... why would you use "Blocks" to LOWER the car, surely you'd use blocks to LIFT it.
Maybe I'm missing something.....

[isuzutoo-eh]

They go between the leaf pack and the axle, since the spring is under the axle, it lowers the body in relation to the axle.

I've seen a few lowered Subaru Foresters recently and I ask myself why?

I suppose it's because they can.

[It'sNotWorthComplaining!]

I always have a chuckle when I go to a major shopping centre and the "Hoons" with there ultra low suspension race up the roads doing burn outs and shortly after they have to swallow their pride because there is a speed bump and their "Muscle" cars are so low, they limp over them, then when free they act like tossers again.

Seems crazy to me but many seem to think it is worthwhile.

2.5" Lowered Defender :spudnikwhat:

Cant see why you would bother - to each his own.;)

[flagg]

I think its awesome. Why not lower it? It's more useful for 99% of driving that most people do than a lift.

And you can fit in carparks!

[101RRS]

I have lowered the onroad height of my RRS by 20mm (it is called LLAMS).

[DEFENDERZOOK]

if you put them in backwards......youll raise the height instead.......

I work for a fedral govt organisation and have reason to frequent a international mail facility at clyde. I frequently see a bronze coloured 100 Series that has been significantly lowered on Parramatta Road in the vacinity. Put most doof doof boyz to shame. Shake my head every time I see it as i dont get it. But spose thats not the point.

Just like filling fuel up through the exhaust pipe, instead of putting the foot down and wasting unburnt fuel through the exhaust, it re fuels instead. :whistling:

Alive tuning in the UK do lowering kits for defenders (4" for 90, 2" for 110). However it was more of an engineering exercise on how well they could get a vehicle with live axles to handle... And after watching their videos they did a damn good job with the 90!!!!!

Not that I'd ever put it on my Defender but it's still interesting from an engineering POV.
