[Guide] Corona/Peugot/Hilux Conversion with Height Adjustable Coilovers [56k DIAF]

[IN 05 NT]

ive also got PEDDERS GSR inserts in mine running low KYB springs, no probs either,

how low are the kings? if they are anylower than 2" then they might be a little bit loose, if so once the weight of the car is on it, it will be fine

I'm running Koni Yellows for an XT130/RA23 (they are the same shock) in my '23 with King Lows and while it is low (wouldn't mind it about half an inch higher, I have no issues.

How do you like em?
Riding that low, do you hit the bumpstops often?

Ive also got Koni Yellows (1991Sport) for my RA28, but havent been able to use them yet.
Ive got adjustable Armstrong shocks (very stiff) in the rear.

do the king lows bring the front down to the wheel or there abouts.

Anyone know if the MA70 master cylinder will fit the RT142 buster?

Thanks,

Pisso.

This is how an RA28 sits with King Lows... (With 15's though)

FYI, it's a Booster... Buster is the dummy on MythBusters!

Yep Kings off the shelf lowed springs are about 45mm lower than standard. They certainly give the RA28 a nice stance. From experience, the progressive lowered springs from King's, give a superior ride, compared to the spring binding Pedders.

cheers Chuck.

thanks, planing to lower the 40 properly soon, didnt know what it was going to sit like.

Go for the Super Low Kings, they'll sit much better...

I would go them also, but I'm changing to coilovers in the future... (and I didn't get much choice as I got these ones as part of all the stuff I got for my old RA28 shell)

[Sagluren]

how much lower are the super low compared to the low, im guessing 10mm or so.

sam.

[twentyEight]

I believe the "Super Lows" are 1" lower than the "Lows"...

I'm led to believe the "Lows" are usually 1" to 1.5" lower than standard and the "Super Lows" are 2" to 2.5" lower than standard...

[Sagluren]

thank you muchly

Hopefully it's not answered elsewhere - but does anyone know the part number for GreenStuff pads that fit the calipers?

I've got a set of the calipers on the left (same size pistons).


tia,
Charles.

[MWP]

I dont know the part number, but "Mistubishi GTO/WRX" was written on the box.
They fit the vented LN106 caliper (one in the left of your photo) perfectly with no modifications.

[thechuckster]

ta for that - is Takai's picture - so muchos thanks to both of you.
