Hey guys anyone mixed EFS 50 mm and Factory sierra rear springs for RUF? I was just wondering as I have the 50 mm EFS lift kit, which is a 3 inch lift right? So for my RUF I was wondering if factory Sierra rears mixed with 50 mm EFS front springs would lift the front up more or than 2 inches and closer to 3 inches or not?

http://www.carrolls.com.au/Go to this shop, tell them what measurments you want for your springs and they will make them. Will cost about $15-$30 more than buying an EFS spring off the shelf and you get exactly what you are after. That simple.

I was running calmini top rear spring on efs and ome to make up a 4 leaf rear and a mix of stock lwb rear up front with calmini, efs and stock springs all making an appearance. Off the shelf is a compramise and i find to get a better all round flex and ride spring its better to customise

I think shitcanning auszookers on FB and then coming on here for advice is a particularly nice touch
