Been thinking of buying a jack up kit for my GS i.e. changing the suspension linkage (dog bones) for longer ones. Do they make much difference on the handling? I am thinking of adding new ones that are 25mm longer than the standard dog bones.

Are they worth it? what are the Pros and Cons?


EDIT: Searched up and moved to Workshop

Longer ones make that seat height lower.

Shorter ones make the seat height higher.

Yes, shorter ones I would need. Gone for a better mod now. Very Happy
