I didn't have the full kit, but if memory serves I had Jamex springs on my last 8v. The ride was on the harsher side of firm, but it wasn't bone shaking.
Sorry that's probably not much use :laugh:

No, there isn't... only contact is by email.

I have jamex on mine, and TBH, steer clear. The ride is quite harsh and I think this is why I now have a rattly rear silencer. The baffles have shaken themselves to bits. That is why I bought Dannyp's kit off him. Gas shocks and spring kit. Hopefully the ride will be a little less harsh. The Jamex rear suspension is height adjustable, but the front is not.

oops, now you tell me. :lipsrsealed:

Sorry. Was at the pool with my kids when you posted this. (An open air pool in the middle of the countryside in 34 degrees of sunshine with hardly anyone else around. Life sucks sometimes. :tongue:)

Hmm. I did have my springs with Turbo Gas shocks, which is probably why they weren't as harsh as you're describing.

I've got the Jamex Sportline kit on my valver - the yellow ones. They're fine. Allthough I had the joy of rubbing arches on the rear near side the other day due to the rather heavy passengers in the back. Don't know it that is becuase of the fatties or my shocks not being stiff enough. Hey ho.
I can only compare these against the shagged OEM ones that I took off the car, so I'm not fountain of knowledge on lowering kits, but I guess my car rattles becuase it's old and not necessarily due to the lowering kit and rough road :-P

i am go to " adapt " mine following advice and DPB has offered he his old set once he has swapped them out IF i still own the old girl
-
Jamex tends to be very harsh.
-

got these on mine and yes they are fairly stiff, i cant compare them to anything else though and i do have uprated arbs and polybushes everywhere
