Boge turbo's/60mm springs

Hi Guys, looking for a bit of advice. I recently renewed all four corners of my '91 sportline cab with Boge Turbo dampers and just used the standard springs. I picked up a set of 60mm lowering springs the other day but I'm now wondering if 60mm will be too much of a drop for the dampers? Really looking for a subtle drop, so not sure if the 60's will be too much, maybe I should look out for 40mm springs instead?  :dontknow:

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Cheers mate, I think 60mm is probably going to be too much.

Something tells me dropping over 40mm on the Boges will affect the dampening, can anyone shed any light? Just looking for a slight drop with a nice sporty ride.

Yes, you need to match the dampers to the spring height. Some dampers are designed to accept a range of heights, for specific info on this the damper manufacturer is probably the best place to get the needed info from.
