short shocks. KE70 s/w rear replacement

Postby Pies » Sun Feb 18, 2007 7:08 pm

im currently using KE70 shocks in the rea of my cressida which is fine. but i have the urge to drop it another 20 mm, which will mean the springs are no longer captive with the ke70 s/w shocks.

can someone tell me what shocks i could use, that are shorter?

hilux front shocks (part number KG5437 kyb)

extended length of 420mm, very short and nice and stiff

or if you don't want it very stiff you could use Peugeot 505 oil shocks

i use the hilux ones in my ae85, works a treat
