Hi,
I have noticed that some Gemini sedans (TE or TF i think) seem to be lower at the front than the back, from the factory.
What model are these, and can I use the front springs from these geminis in my TG to lower the front?

A rep from King Springs advised me about this, he said that the TE onwards Gemi's had slightly different front lower control arms.
The reason they look a little lower at the front is because the seat in which the spring sits is slightly more recessed by approx 10-15mm. So that's why a post was made for people with TX/C/D gem's to swap to the newer lower control arms. It balances out the asthetic appeal of lowering older model Gem's. Once i lower mine, i'll be able to determine whether i want another 10-15mm taken from the front.
