    New Kings Springs @ 2" Lift

    Hello and advise needed please.

    About 4 weeks ago I got a new set of coils for my 2001 ST Ute, from when after the job was complete it didn't look right. The previous set of coils were Dobinsons std rate @ 2" lift and from memory there was something like 4" space between the front bump stop. About 5 weeks ago got a set of Kings fitted, std rate @ 2" lift and the bump stop clearance is somewhere around 2" - 2 1/4" space???? Photos attached. Checked the part number against the Kings online catalogue and they are correct.

    Does anyone know what the gap at the bump stop should be with a 2" lift? These King Springs are sagging when the ute is stationary as I work away and it has only done just over 1000 k's highway running since fitting.

    The Dobinsons before had 150,000+ k's.

    according to the part number those are 50 mm lift progressive rate comfort springs for a gq. as the gu is heaiver they will sit lower.
    these are the springs i run in my gq.
    if i remember right that should be 30 mm lift in a gu (i may be wrong here)
    if its worth doin its worth over doin

    After giving Fulcrum Suspensions my patrol year/model this is what they ordered in and fitted, a specialist fitter? Any wonder the country is going down the tube!!!
