GEN4 suspension

[joslin]

Hi guys, im a bit confused about how the gen4 suspensions switches between the wagon and the sedan, are all the components switchable? if i put sedan read springs in a wagon it will sag right? but what if i put wagon rears in a sedan?
and then things like sway bars and strut braces. Somebody please educate me

Someone with a bit more knowledge might chime in with more/different info. But as far as I've seen/read all the suspension is the same other than the springs.
Sedan spring in a wagon will sag, Wagon spring in a sedan will jack the rear up.
In theory, I would think the swaybar would be stiffer on the wagon as well, but it doesn't seem to be.

Thanks mate. Are teins the way to go? I don't think I can afford coilovers

Im a fan of Eibach springs myself. Had them on my falcon years ago and it transformed the handling and comfort of the car without having your kidneys drop out from under you.

S&J Automotive here in SA recommend them because they dont squeak and they love the comfort.

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I noticed your link still works and I was under the impression that Eibach have discontinued springs for the liberty? I'm looking for a set of lowering springs at the moment for my spec b and was tossing up between Teins and Pinks but if I can find a set of Eibachs I'd jump on them.

Eibach are definitely discontinued, I got a reply back from Aus rep about a month ago

Thought as much, cheers for the swift confirmation.
What suspension route did you end up going with?

None unfortunately, my car has 32k on it and I don't want to flog out the bilsteins. I'm happy with standard height, if I find some sti pinks I will put them in otherwise will probably just leave it.

Yeah fair, I was thinking of doing the same. It's just hard not to get bitten by the mod bug!
My brain just keeps going: Get pinks - may as well get S-Techs... - May as well get Coilovers...

This is news to me. Thanks for the update. If this is the case I may as well go Tein's or coil overs unless I can find some second hand billy's that can be rebuildable for less money.

I find it strange though that your link still works...
Ugh I would snap these up if they were still sold. Now to continue the headache of deciding between Tein's, Pinks, Swift, Coilovers etc.

I'm almost 100% certain to be grabbing a set of Shockworx coilovers for my MY09 GT Spec.B shortly. The car has just on 95,000km on it, I'll be looking to offload the stock suspension once the coilovers are settled in if you'd be interested.

[Caution]

MCA will be doing coilovers for the Liberty very shorty.
Taking my car in Monday for them to get a few measurements.

another one to keep in mind.

Rob - PM me with details when your ready to move on your coilovers. Im in no rush but Billies are probably what Im leaning towards for cost reasons. Cheers

If I can find some standard KYB stuff to put back in my car to sell I'll have some Bilsteins and Tein S Tech springs available. Billies have only done around 35k kms.
