GTI Cabby Suspension

Post

Back to the top
Looking to put a GTI Cabriolet suspension back to stock height (or maybe a slight drop to 30mm) - must be low mileage in good condition please

Even though my current set-up works it's too low as I'm old, my 1.8t sump is already lower than a snake's belly, plus the shocks are externally quite rusty which I don't like.

What have you got? I don't mind if what you have is not a complete kit as I can always buy other parts to make it whole.

Do you have after market coil overs fitted or lowered springs?

If you have lowered spring and still have the original struts then this is a good comfortable kit.

If not you will need to source the front struts and spring cups, washers etc….
