I've seen full sets of 4 adjustable coilovers on ebay for $700.00 a set. Has anyone had experience with these and are they good value? Is it better to have existing springs altered? I'm only after about 40mm drop.

Have a look at this earlier post Mike. http://soarercentral.com/sc-forum/messages/4570/295015.html I did a fair amount of homework & believe the Megan Coilovers were the best option. $700 for coilovers does seem a little cheap though. The megans were recommended by many members of Clublexus.com as well and are still going strong. Drop me a note if you need any more info

Thanks Mark. I had read that thread before which did give me some valuable info. Do you know how hard it would be to fit bags into the LS400? I think I know where I can get a set at the right price.

Much easier with a hoist. maybe 1.5 hrs per corner for a first timer. There is a tutorial somewhere but I cant remember if it was here or one of the other sites. I'll have a look around for you.

Hi Mike, Ive looked around. Here's a link to a great ls400 site, but it only has the non-air suspension tut. Great one to have bookmarked for other maintenance though

Actually mate, I think Ive found it. Can you accept a 6mb email? I'll try & send it to you if you send me your email address for the attachment. If not, drop me your address in a PM & I'll snail mail you a copy on DVD.
