This is the latest rebirth of my EK,
Lowered all round, and wheels painted green.

Thanks guys, at first I wasn't sure, but now I'm very happy!
The color is like cadbury purple with a lilac pearl, kinda spewin I did that cos it's hard to match
.
Yep 14's, 6inch back and 5 inch front's narrowed by one inch so I can turn corners
.
Rear springs lowered by flipping one spring and removing two others, and front lowered with heavy duty pedders 2 inch lowered with one spring cut off (norty me
)
Smooth, the wagon is in the nude for a full resto
Hey Dev it's not as low as yours at the front, but I'm happy,

looks kool, not sure about the shade of green on the wheels, would probably have to see it live cause green and purple do go together but have to be right shades
as to being norty cutting springs
my phillosphy remove both springs cut 1 in half through the other away put 1 half in each side
job done

Love it man love it them colors go good together it reminds me of the vine yards that i played in up at Berri in my young days (purple grapes and green leaves oooh the memories of childhood when cars were cars and the only vinyl that was around was the stuff you put on the record player!!!

Sits real good Trev, mine could do with coming up half an inch in the front. I like the way yours sits. The 14's look better on the front than the 13's did. Fortunately worth the cost to get them narrowed!

Thanks for kind words guys.
It's funny you should say that Devilrod cause I was inspired by your car to lower mine like I have
.
The only thing I would ask is can you steer without too much tyre scraping, if so I wouldn't touch it

Yeah!!! I really like it. Wouldn't have thought of the colour combo myself so a nice surprise.
A great ride height too. At some stage my sedan will need to come down a touch further...somewhere very similar to yours right now.
