Title: R32 suspension...
Post by: scarr89 on 22 November 2011, 17:29

on a standard mk 4 (130PD), yay or nay? Does it fit if so how low will it sit, as I know you can buy say 40mm/60mm lowering springs etc but I do not know how 'low' the R32 suspension is compared to the standard on the 130.

Running 18's BTW  :smiley:

Cheers

Fronts will fit but rears will not.

Ohhh really. Why is this may I ask?

I think I have just clocked why the rears won't. Is it cause the way it is bolted in top and bottom? as in not on an angle, just 2 bolts going through the strut?

Would it be ok to run say just the front shocks and springs and rear springs and then get some different rear shocks?

I'm not sure the R32 rear springs will fit :undecided:

Not going to work very well on the front due to difference in engine weight etc.
