Im looking to lower my cab slightly by 30mm. My
Mechanic has recommended to change all the springs and shock absorbers to get a better ride.

Which springs and shocks would be best to purchase?

Any info helps

The tried and trusted combination of Eibach springs and Bilstein B4 dampers.

As above, but note that with NEW springs and worn rubber bits replaced, you may well end up with the ride height similar to what it is now
