Just wondering how common it is for people to replace their stock springs with an aftermarket low springs (kings or other) without upgrading the shocks at all?

If anyone has done this, did you go low or super low? If you did this, did it damage your shocks over time? Was the ride as hard as it is for george bush to find weapons of mass distruction??

Just got a very tight budget, but wanting desperately here to lower my dc4, any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks
Bobs

over time your shocks will be damaged as far as i know because the stress on the shocks from the lowered springs is constant compared to when riding on your stock springs

thanks reyesone, i've heard the same, just thought i'd ask some people that have done this themselves and hear first hand the affects & outcome of the change over

yeah lowered springs will bugger you stock shocks over time.
depends how low you go though
you lower you go the faster they'll blow.
