What year is the Ka? The fronts are not a problem, but the rears can be. Basically the Fiesta MkIII stuff should fit the Ka if it is pre 98 car. The easiest way to see what will fit your Ka is see what the rear lower damper mounts are like. If they are forked they are the same as the earlier Fiesta stuff. If not, the Ka and Fiesta stuff will fit.

The 'bodge' years ago was to fit PI springs (these lowered further than what they claimed) in addition to fitting Fiesta dampers up front (IIRC the MkIII items are shorter). However the springs would snap after a year, regardless of damper choice.

2002 mate so what fronts can you get cheap

In which case you will have the eye dropout fitting rear dampers.

Lowering springs with Fiesta MkIII struts should lower the front. It won't be the nicest of drives but it will get the car to the desired height. Andy Turner of the KaKlub is the man to ask.

Springs with the matched shocks, all unused I'm after £150 for them (I paid £200 for them a month ago but no longer have a KA to fit them too)
