King Springs Unrivaled Reputation.
Engineered and manufactured to the highest standards at their state of the art facility in Australia. King Springs are the longest running and most trusted springs on the market for Subaru’s. The springs advanced manufacturing produces a spring that will have a better load capacity with increased comfort and off road capability.
Low Impact on CV Joints and Axles.
Lifting your vehicle using King Springs without the addition of “strut top lift spacers” will result in much less trouble with CV axles. Putting a tall lift spacer (1.25” or taller) on top of your strut will allow your axles to go well beyond their intended range of movement. The front axles on Subaru’s sit at a pretty steep angle when at stock height. So the cheap aftermarket axles have low success rates therefore new OEM or Re-manufactured are the only good replacement options. It makes for expensive maintenance if your “strut top spacer lift kit” is constantly damaging expensive to replace axles.
Reduces sway and body roll.
Improves your vehicles handling capability, especially after you raise your cars center of gravity from lifting it.
Designed for street and off-road use.
This is paramount for towing or when equipped with roof top or bumper mounted accessories such as tents, bikes, kayaks, spare tires, gas can, etc. The springs help prevent bottoming out. King Springs are slightly stiffer than your stock springs but won’t create a harsh ride.
Why are King Springs sometimes slightly shorter then my OEM ones?
King Springs in both standard and raised height are often shorter than the springs they are replacing. They won’t be compressed as far under the initial “pre-load” it takes to get to their “installed height”.

The pre-built strut assemblies with King springs, KYB struts and spacers worked perfect. Lifted the car as advertised and greatly improved the handling of the vehicle. With the stock Michelins it handled like a champ. After I upsized with 1.8" taller AT tires it still handled great even with the total 3" lift on taller skinny tires. Grip wasn't as good on the road but off road and snow it was unstoppable. Sold it since and working on the next project.
Well, out of the box, they look awesome! But unfortunately, we are unable to install them yet because my daughterneeds her car every day but we will report back as soon as we get them in!
