Hey guys I have an old vp v6 manual ute that I recently bought and was looking at lowering the ass end abit. When looking online all I can find are vn-vp sedan kits and a vg ute kit. From memory I'm pretty sure the VG and VP ute carried the same rear diff housing and suspension for the V6 models and can be swapped accross. Just wanted too double check before I forkout close too a grand worth of suspension that ain't gonna fit my car haha

My VP ute was slammed. It had the old springs from the VB race car the previous owner had. Was like a go cart.

You’ll be able to use VN VP sedan springs.

VG ute springs will be fine in the rear. Look at Lovells they will be a big improvement on stock. Whereas Kings will be worse than stock for making a harsh ride.
