Hi all,

First post here!

I own a 2004 Ra Rodeo 2wd LT model.

Looking to drop it down - not keen on air bags but just getting it lower to the ground.

Thinking along the lines of drop spindles and lowering blocks - what else do I need and where in Brisbane or the Gold Coast would help out?

Cheers
Paul

Depends how low you want it and how much you want to spend. To just get it a bit lower (~3-4inchs) wind down the torsion bars at the front and chuck some lowering blocks in the rear. Cut your bump stops and your set thumbsup.gif

and on any truck winding them down 3-4 inches is way to far.

modding your bump stops isint illegal down here, maybe it is in qld tho.

carter customs has had plenty to do with RA rodeo's mate, so go to them for sure!

Dude.
I have an Ra Rodeo my self and i can tell you they do have tortion bars and the 3 inches isnt too far as this is how far i have lowered mine and the ride is alot better- alot less floaty.

The only rodeos that dont have the tortion bars and have springs instead are the work models (eg. the 2.4L 4cyl)
