Lesjofor sport springs

[Seatmann]

Hey up all. I fitted a set of lesjofors with a 40mm drop last night on my Cordy Vario tdi and I am blown away by them. The ride comfort is fantastic and the handling is mint. They're so much better than the standard springs. I thought I would just do this quick post as I couldn't find any sort of review on these.

have you got any pics bud was it a hard change over ?

I could try and take some tommorrow, the change over was a doddle to be honest. If you're interested in doing it I could help keep you right. The funny thing is though that the car doesn't really look low but I expect they'll settle a bit.

is it just springs you have fitted or whole unit my car has springs on with 30mm drop i did not do it already on car when i got it but i wont it that little bit lower like just dont no how easy or hard it was like

I just got springs because I already fitted some kyb gas shocks not long ago.

i think mine is on apexi springs but they are to stiff kinda uncomfortable like would like to be maybe 45mm drop with a comfy ride but still have the handling like

Well I'm amazed at how good these are, I live up the angus glens in scotland and there are some bumpy roads for sure but I'm finding them more comfy than the standard springs and yet the handling is fantastic.

ill try having a look for a set how much did they set you back if you dont mind me askin ?

I got them from buypartsby but had to phone as they don't list them on their website. Mine were £118 delivered which is flippin cheap, cheaper than fleabay. They're a swedish made spring and they're tuv approved too.

Here you go bud, a couple of pics. The car doesn't look that low to me but it'll probably settle over the next while.

If you do want to go lower than 40mm though you'll need shocks as the standard can only take a 40mm drop. You might be better to either get shocks first and see if they help or look at a full kit or coil overs.

yea i been looking at full sets today to many to choose from dont no whats good for the money tho ???

I know what you mean, I bought the kyb shocks because buypartsby were selling them at virtually half price and then I've been meaning to do the springs for a while and one of my rear ones broke in 3 bits so I just searched around online. The lesjofors sounded like a good company and they're scandinavian and tuv approved so I thought I would take a chance. I am very pleased though thankfully. Sometimes a google of a particular make will bring up forums where people are talking about them and saying wether they're to hard etc.
