You can do an airbag setup with monoleaf. That’s taking all leafs off except last one and that keeps diff located. I wouldn’t do but it’s a cheap way to get a cool look without 4 link. Otherwise you won’t get the drop you want.

I have had a couple of cars with airbag setups and a lot goes into fabrication to do it properly on the back.

This is my van

Looks as though he did mono leaf setup. Neat setup though. My van has way to much done with 4 link , chassis notch and and tubbed. Looks like the ek will be a lot easier to get down!! Good luck very interested to see ur progress. You doing the install yourself? Where are you located

I can only imagine given the amount of customising I can see done on the outside Image

I’ve got this diff to go in too so should be good to just bolt it all in.

If it isn’t low enough I might get some help.

I am in two minds whether to airbag mine aswell. It does look awesome when done.

That diff will be perfect. Do you have to shorten to suit the ek
