My '88 Westy is lowered with H&R springs and my mudflap is nearly dragging. Someone else posted an opinion to avoid H&R springs, and after a couple of years with them, I have to agree. I am eagerly awaiting the replacement 2wd springs list purchase to replace them. WHat I have noticed about the H&R springs is that the fronts have appeared to sag over time. I think I have about 3 inches clearance under my mudflap. but, I can fit in spaces under 6" 8" Todd '88 Westy Joe Fortino wrote: > good question, new coils pre-cut? my wife does'nt want me to lower > but I was about -2iches I bet it would ride great! > > anyone draggin the mud flaps?? hehe > Joe > > Shawn <dart@WADENA.NET> wrote: > > > --------------------------------------------- > > > Attachment: > > > MIME Type: multipart/alternative > > --------------------------------------------- > Hello, > I own a 1984 vanagon and was looking for some info on lowering the > low buck way (cutting the coil springs).
