Has anyone used this combination. Was told by a online distributor that it should make the car sit level at the sills. KFRL-68SP4 (Rear) KFFL-57SL (Front)
Have found most people have used KFRL-68SSL (Rear) KFFL-57SL (Front)
I’m a little confused on which combo to go for. Any info would be appreciated

Personally, I would use the Front one but the standard XR6 rear.

Kings recommend KFFL 57 front, KFRL 68SL Rear (these are the standard one for an XR)
Super Low: KFFRL 57SL front, KFRL-68SSL Rear.

Make sure you get GOOD front and rear Lowered Shock absorbers.

Thanks Getting Side Ways

I have got all the measurements from King Springs
KFFL-57SL (35-45mm drop) 345mm centre of wheel to wheel arch
KFRL-68SP4 (60-65mm drop) 315mm centre of wheel to wheel arch
Took all measurements & the sills should end up pretty much level or a touch lower in the rear which is what I was aiming for.

What are the measurements for the Standard XR6 rear’s (centre of wheel to wheel arch)??
Was told the Standard front struts should be ok but will be getting shortened rear shocks & bump stops & maybe down the line get some rear adjustable upper control arms. If the front struts get flogged out will get a set of shorts.
