    They’ll be 2” King springs paired with the Koni Raids which can’t go 3” (same as my squishy setup). I love the Raids.

    Such a great vehicle you’ve landed mate!

    What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal??

    Yeah cool, it probably just seemed higher to me because of the tyres. Is there any way of knowing what the Raids are set to without removing?
