looking for pics of low saffs,
and what springs (not coilovers!!) you fitted please

im looking for about this height

but need to know what springs to order and where from



just about to change Koni adjustables from one car onto another and wanted 60mm springs but cannot find any?

please help

Sean.

 

Be carefull saffs handle really bad when they are too low. If you are gong that low you will need camber shims on the rear. and don't forget a full setup once your happy.

 

just want some springs as a stopgap untill i fit propper coilovers, Adjustable TCAs and twin antirollbar setup up front, supra diff, propper beam etc over the winter when its off the road

But dunno who sells 60mm springs these days as nobody seems to list them who ive spoken to

Sean.

 

Whatever you do, make sure them brake pipes are neat!

 

Tbh mate that setup maybe coilovers like mine im on avos lol

 

Standard height is where it's at on a sierra!

 

Totally agree They look good low but handle like shit. Even tried coilovers but ended up really harsh so went back to std height and konis.

unless you can spend ŁŁŁŁ's its not worth messing

 

Pics OSTFU Paul

 

You have lost me

 

Totally agree

Standard on front but slightly higher than standard on the rear. The aim is to get these old boats to handle so coilovers rear beam & at least standard height.
They are not meant to look & handle like a boat half full of water.

 

On Konis with 18s




On 15s

On 17s

 

Mine on knoi with 17"

 

17" on konis and -40s. Does handle pretty crap on the 17s. Was worse on the 8x16" oz mags though. Drives superbly on the 15" 4x4 wheels

 

Sid yours looks mint.

 

Thanks glen that was about 6 years ago now wish i had never sold them wheels

 

 

Jimbo your saph looks awsome mate

 

Here's couple of my old cars

Bill your old white one looks low.

 

Are they 18s big lad??

 

yes, same 18inch dymags i have had since i finished the car

 

Bilstein shocks and springs....

 

My old sapph on Konis and Ahmed springs

 

Still breaks my heart Karl when i think of what happened to your car it was my fav Sapph this, i love your 3dr but imo this was better, gut wrenching some goon wasn't paying attention

 

Mine decked on coilovers with 8x18 comps on and rolled front arches

 

Lovin this thread !

 

Karl.. yours looked mint. Such a shame that it got fooked up.

Bailey... that sits really well. I take it you have flared the front arches..

 

Shit happens eh mate lol. No, I still miss it, I love the 3dr but it was always a Sapph I wanted when I was a kid.

 

Just a little bit think you can tell in these pics
