Hey all,

I need to know the differences in front suspension b/w a i6 and v8 falcon.....is it limited to just springs or is there more to it?

How bout the back end too?

thanks

V8's have a stiffer spring rate, because the engine is heavier.

I would also suggest it has higher rate shockies to control the stiffer springs too.

Shocks are the same, but the swaybar is also stiffer.
