Mk1 octavia 4x4 turbo lowered suspension / drop link question?

Featured Replies

Hi,

As stated in the title, I have a mk1 octavia 4x4 turbo estate.

I have just purchased some AP shocks and springs which will apprantly lower the car by 40mm on the front and 30mm on the rear. I'm happy with these heights before anyone starts mentioning coilovers!

My question is to do with the front dropkinks. Do I require shortened or adjustable ones. Shortened ones I can find from the likes of venom but I'm thinking adjustable is the way to go? Looking on eBay though there is nit much mention of the 4x4 variant apart from some very expensive ones. Can I get VRS, TT, R32 etc. adjustable ones or does it have to be 4x4 only?

Any help would be wonderful!

Cheers Si.

Not sure which set up the 4x4 needs - whether its the long d/links like the vrs or the short ones as per the diesel..

So in the absence of real help... have a thrad bump!

No worries.

I think it's similar to the VRS.

I popped in to Venom Motorsport and managed to get some Stance+ adjustable ones for a decent enough price. Just waiting on the suspension.
