Hey guys, i've got a 1996 Hardbody d21 with the KA24 in it, and I was wondering what suspension you guys use if any of you own one? What kind of coils/lowering springs would be greaty appreciated. Thanks ! :)

Relocated to truck forums from 240sx forums. Good luck with suspension upgrades!

You can use lowering blocks and wind down the torsion arms to drop the truck. You will have to realign the front end after doing this to reset alignment so you don't wear out the tires. Most auto parts places have the blocks in several sizes. The torsion arms you can do your self with a wrench and ratchet, just use a level to make sure you get it even and bounce the front end to make sure it is all the way down before measuring.
