alto springs corsa shocks

[OllieM163]

would I be able to use alto springs from any year ? Also if I ran corsa b rear shocks and alto springs how much of a drop would that give me?

Unsure if it would be safe fitting other stuff off cars??
Bearing in mind that the standard dampers could be well saggy by now.

I've bought these front for £30+10pp. Rears are £40 Inc pp.
Springs are £80 inc pp.
It mounts up if you keep going. I've got a few hundred pounds at the moment...
My first mods.

I used pre 06 Alto springs on the front of mine, and 30mm apex on the rear ...dropped her lovely.

Were they used alto springs?

Yup, cost me £60 on Ebay for both.
Got to be pre 06 if you go for this buddy.

Cheers. But springs look like they come in 4s only?

Jezz, ebay is doing my nut in. I've bought shocks and a couple of belts as the fan bearing is making a thruming sound when cold, so my son's doing it soon. Been looking for stuff is a full time job. I spent all evening looking at shocks and wheels and I never settled on any wheels. Got rear shocks tho.

Wheels always turn up miles away. 100 miles, 2 hours.
Might call a few local scrap yards.
