well, since I bought the B4 wagon... I have been trying different things W/it, since it was my first Passat ever...

for instince, the lowering kit I installed is for a MKIII golf VR6.. not a VR wagon, so the rear sags bigtime, and bounces like nothin I've owned before

so in my search for suspension, I founds these REAR ONLY H&R coilovers....

so I figure that I'll raise the rear up some, and give it alittle rake if you will:smile:

(good price on them as well, the fronts were smashed in an accident I guess)

the first pick is when I first lowered it W/the MKIII suspension.... see how it was even..??

then the rear struts took a dump, so I installed the H&R coilovers, which lowered it more than it was....:eek: (second pic) so the other night I raised the coils to even the ride out... and I think it looks great now:smile:
