Hi,

I hope its ok to bring this old thread back up. I have a question with regards to the MEGAN EZ's.

I have a 94 LS400, and I would like to get some coilovers. I was looking at either BCR or Megans.

My question is with regards to maximize the lowered height. I understand that the EZ's is limited to the amount of drop in the rears, however if my future plans would be to add UAS air bags, would this solve the issue?

OR

Would I be better off with BCR with shorter dampers and also add UAS aig bags?

My apologies for being a noob at this, im new to the LS400 and Air suspension

thank you in advance for any help.

no not really. but you should check to make sure the BC pressure tubes are small enough to fit the UAS aerosports over.

Hi Pure Drifter,

Thank you for your reply. Much appreciated.

I did check and UAS bags will fit over the BCR tubes.

OR my third option would be to buy KYB or Tokico shocks? This may sound silly, but I have seen people with stock shocks with UAS bags that can go lower than the megas ez? Of course this is considering that the bags are deflated, correct?

So, if I did use the MEGAN's with UAS bags over it, and deflate it a bit, IT will lower the right height? yes or no? haha

I guess, im just trying to find out what is a better route to get considering that I will be adding an air suspension in the future.

Thank you again PD!

once you throw a bag on it the megan rear lower bracket issue becomes a non-issue unless you plan to drive it super low while on air. it should dump the same as the rest though someone with megan+UAS would need to chime in to confirm.

i have the EZs on my ucf20. I dont have a problem with going low. I can almost tuck wheel with my 19s. Better than my old JICs I had.

Hi,

Thank you for the reply everyone. I really appreciate the help you guys have provided.

I have another silly question. I have a UCF10. I know that the shocks of the UCF20 fits the 10's but its too long, however i went to the megan website and it says its only available for the UCF20 (95-00).

Does that mean that its not available?

Or when ordering, do we order for the UCF20 eventhough we have a 10?

thanks again!

for megan the prototypes were developed on a UCF1x, so it will work fine. what's funny is if you call them they'll tell you its just an error on their site.

Hi PureDrifter,

Thank you for the reply!

Good to know that these were designed for the 10's.

I will see how much I can get these locally.

With regards to warranty, how are they (megan company) with warranty issues? Are you able to buy parts individually? (With bcr, u can buy dampers for replacement if broken, does megan do this too?)

Thanks very much!!

Regards.

as far as i know they do. That being said my LP streets are going strong for a couple years now without a hitch.

kool...

good to know yours is still going strong!

Thanks again for all the help!

if you have the cash, def go with coilovers and UAS bags. remember that bags cost upwards of $800 by itself, which is about the same cost as coilovers. so you'll be spending at least $2000 after all the air setup, management, fittings, etc. the beauty of this setup is that you can fine tune the height with coils, and if equipped, you can adjust dampening as well.

there is nothing wrong with stock shocks over bags. many do this as you get the same drop, just not the ride quality and ability to fine tune.
