Slowly fixing things up on my S3 Safari, noticed that that it has Rocky Mountain parabolics,problem is its touching the 2 metre mark and only found out yesterday after scraping the crap off of the roof. Is there any way of reducing the height with out removing the parabolics. I have put R16 defender wheels on it to make it look closer to the orginal layout, and finding some R15 wheels is the only option I can come up with!

Has it got extended shackles on? If so replace with standard ones and it will drop it about 1 1/2 inches.

You're right V8jon, looks like 3" on the back and 2" on the front, i'm looking around to find some shackles to reduce it by the 1 1/2 you mentioned.

If they are the same as the 109 ones I'll trade you, got some standard looking ones on my parabolics
