I have my 4WS lude, and its finally come time to lower it my thing is I have noticed that some springs are not made for 4ws. I was wondering what all you have on your cars or what would be a good recommendation im not looking to go lower than 1.5. Just want a better grip on the road and some better cornering and handling.

 

the 4ws shouldn't interfere with any suspension setup as far as i know... I got eibach sportlines, on kyb agx struts on my 4ws lude, I really like the drop and really enjoy the ride compared to stock (only thing i can compare to), and I haven't had to adjust camber at this point - and i've been monitoring tread wear like a hawk. if anything the front appears to be a little high on the odd day i look at it - which can bug me depending on my mood.

anyways a pic is worth a thousand words.

 

I lowered my 4WS without any problems. You don't have to worry about a thing.

 

lowered mine to. you shouldnt have to worry about anything.

Then I hope you're not getting just springs. You don't have to get a full coilover kit, but don't go ghetto and just do springs. Upgrade your shocks, too.

 

Not to thread jack or anything - but i thought I heard someone say that the 4ws stopped in 1992?.........

 

Nope 4ws, electronic controlled was only offered on 92-93, the older ludes had mechanical controlled which from what I hear had lots of problems...None for me electronically. I was lookin at goin Tein S. Springs with KYB GR2 shocks.

 

Ironic, because I've never heard of problems with the mechanical system, but I hear about bugs every now again in the electronic one.

In reality, it's very rare for either system to ever have any problems. The system is very simple.

It's also NOT HEAVY! (that always bugs me when I see people write that it's heavy)
