Lowering Springs for a T3 Caravelle
Does anyone know which car model springs can be used to lower a T3 1991 model?
I'd heard that Holden HQ springs could be used but not sure if that's the corrent year and car model springs.
Any ideas?

King springs up at the gold coast can reset your springs but i dont know how well they go?
And if you need some standard springs to send to be done i have some here you can have!!

Thanks Pod.
Could be worth calling Pedders and asking. Might call the Chief tomorrow and see if he knows. I'll post the answer if I get one.

there are a few solutions available in the UK such as avo, jk, and jamex - check out the brickyard
there's also some on http://www.cip1.com in the usa
the major spring manufacturers in oz will do custom springs based on your originals
i've also heard you can use the t4 springs and have them lowered?
anyone know what the difference in quality would be in having the originals reset as oppossed to having new custom ones made in oz? how well do the
originals hold up after say 20 yrs of use?
