Whilst on this topic, Just wondered what shockers would be best suited for a drop of either 2" or 3"?
I've read that some people use Land Rover shockers. But Classicswede has Spax for sale.
So thats dropped 80mm @ the front so just over 3", is it driveable on the road or too stiff/harsh?
What sort of clearance have you got on the lowest part?
I'm undecided whether to go for a 2" or 3" drop, unless you can go 2 1/2"?
89 3dr 340DL in Battleship grey with Ultralights and Williams power
Whats the matter with the car i'm driving can't you tell that it's out of style?

80mm is driveable if you got the right springs(i got dai spec ones there) and stiff front dampers.. Had spax and 2" bloks on the rear..
On my current daily drive i got 70mm retuned leaf springs and 80mm lowering at front.. Thats on the limit for a daily
