Outlander Lowering Springs

TEIN S.TECH LOWERING SPRINGS FOR 02+ MITSUBISHI LANCER



picture shown may not be for your specific vehicle

PART # MAKE/MODEL SPRING RATE DROP (F/R)
SKR66-AUB00 02+ MITSUBISHI LANCER OZ RALLY 219/157 1.8"/1.1"
SKR66-AUB00 04+ MITSUBISHI LANCER RALLIART 219/157 1.1"/0.2"

Anyone familiar enough with both vehicles to know if this would work? I suppose if nobody knows I can aske them the diameter of the spring and how long it is...but would the strength matter? I know the AWD Outlander is a good 500 lbs heavier than the sportback RA.

dont know about those, but how bout this

also Arospeed and H&R make springs for the Outlander. And I think Tien has springs for the AirTrek on their japanese site. Maybe try looking for AirTrek springs, I think they should work.

I saw those, but damn, $70 for shipping seems steep.
Any preference between the Tein or Eibach's? I have never lowered a car before so have no working knowledge of the quality. I emailed Tein to see if they have a specific Outlander product that I didn't see on their site, but no response yet.

Any personal experience with Arospeed or H&R? i'm not really into the yellow spring from Arospeed, but they are quite cheap.

yep the shipping killed it for me too.

im trying to see if any local shops can order it for me, the part number is on the auction

let us know the prices if you connect with a shop.

I had eibach suspension on my evo it is extemely awesome....ive had tein s techs on my eclipse and i have to say overall out of both the eibachs are much better and more refined....much better ride

Good to know. I checked Tein's 06 lineup and they don't offer anything for the Outlander...per their brochure. I haven't checked Eibach's site.
The Arospeeds mentioned above...who makes them, is it actually manufactured by Arospeed, it seems they are just a warehouse.

arospeed is the brand name i heard good and bad about them...my cousin had those springs on his eclipse and they were horrible he says....I would say if eibach makes springs for the outlander go with them ..if not look for H&R's

Road Race is interested in seeing if the Progress springs they run on their rally cars will be appropriate on my car, but I don't have the money for them right now. I will try to call them tomorrow and see where this will go. I was thinking later on in the year I'd do the springs, but I know they would make the car look so much better...the wheel well gap is just HUGE!

hmmmm...maybe. w/ light chassis, er' almost a lancer s.u.v. why not huh??

If I can find one suitable for the Lancer Sportback, I think I'll be set. The Progress springs are about $190, so I'll keep it in the back of my mind for a while. Damn, everything ($) adds up quickly with cars

hey, did you know that high flow cat for lancer works for outlander?? i, e-mailed road race and asked about it. well its good to hear that thing will perform for outlander...nice!!! am' getting one next wk.!!!

That's why I put it on my car

awwweeee you!!!!! how is it??? any changes??? (yeah for sure, but what about torque??) does it come w/ O2 sensor?? i, need to find out all this, before i, start w/ it.

your o2 will hook up to it, you may need the adapter though, I'm 99% sure they installed it on mine. When you order it they should tell you, if not, pm me and I'll check mine to see if there's an adapter on the cat.
I had the header, downpipe and high-flow all installed at the same time, so I noticed it went through the RPm's easier and likes the mid range rpm's better too. It also seem that I don't need to step on the gas as far to go the same speeds as before.

sweet!!!!!! by the way, what adapter?? O2 adapter ?? or adapter pipe for high flow cat?

The adapter in reference is for the o2 sensor. The cat should be a 2/1/4, so it'll just weld right up. Yes...WELD.

am' still waiting for the item.... but yeah, WELD!!! hmmm....supp w/ that???

Welding is better anyway...no worries about nuts and bolts loosening up. I never liked anything on my exhausts bolted if I could help it. My Camaro used to rumble and the bolts would get loose on the exhaust every once in a while. Good luck with my new exhaust addition so far too

I tried ordering some of the Arospeed from an online shop and they emailed me to let me know they can't order them anymore. Discontinued. Anyone have luck ordering ANY affordable springs ANYWHERE for the outlander?
thanks

Sorry, haven't come across any just yet. I know thet RRM has the Lancer springs made by Progress that MAY work, but I imagine the load capacity will be off by 700 lbs or somewhere in that area. I don't have the finances right now to buy them so I will not have them check fitment on my car if I can't purchase them.

Nice Outlander, I'm new to this forum, and don't know much about it. I was wondering where can you get grill guards or nerf bars for it, in Canada? and other accesories to beef up the looks of this vehicle?
