What about King springs? I heard they were stiffer and about an inch taller.

**bue car** · 05-30-2010, 06:30 PM

stiffer, not so much, at least does not feel like when i am driving. taller, yes. do they handle in dirt well? yes yes!

this is king lift springs and a 1 inch jackson rally life kit, oem 2.5 rs struts.

6.5 inches of travel before the wheel lifts from the ground! (car is jacked up)

^^ is that the same setup in both of your pics? In the close up is it jacked up or something? looks higher than the further back side view of the car. I am interested in lifting as well, not much but something along the lines of a forester strut/spring lift.(need to do more research though and of course save money for it!) How is the handling, body roll and how much - camber can u get safely without rubbing?

its jacked up for the one pick. i was just showing the potential travel. the struts are oem. not sure where i am going next, my rears are leaking oil

I should haVe my wagon lifted 2 inches just before mid July

I've seen the Jackson Rally spacers, but I got nothing when I Googled HighGuys. Do you have anymore info on them?
