Back in the summer we ran a step by step fitting feature on Low Pro coil-overs for a T5 That was back when it was sunny, before all the rain and frost. The lucky person who received the kit was Steve Redding - although to be fair we did make him work for them - we only supplied them, then watched him roll about on the floor while he was fitting them to his new (to him) T5.
The coil-overs were fully adjustable allowing for a drop in ride height of between 30-80 mm on the front and 30 - 70 mm on the rear. We fitted them to Steve’s new T5 project. He’d only owned it a week and had already changed the lights, the front panels and added some twenty-inch rims.
