Well that's the coil overs on :cool: easy enough to put on, but, don't expect to get the ride height sorted very quickly :evil:
Must have adjusted the fronts 5 times and the rears were on and off at least 6 times :blackeye:
Can't decide on the damper setting, i knew it was too hard at one point when the warning triangle fell off it's mount on the rear parcel shelf :I

Any hints or tips??? Hoping to get mine on soon, but need to get my power steering sorted again first

Send me an e-mail, i just wrote it all up for Paul Mullet who bought my old struts and lowering springs :)
You'll have to mess around with the height adjustment yourself until your satisfied etc

Follow the instructions for changing over the parts from the old struts from the Spax instruction sheet ;) or you'll end up putting the old stuff back on again :p

hey bs once you get the ride height sorted you should get the the car onto a set of corner weight scales just to get the car sitting with the weight spread evenly (well as evenly as poss) accross the four wheels and it should make it corner all nice and balanced and very fast :D

My car is heavy enough without adding more to it :eek: i understand what you mean :I but, i'm not too bothered about it being exact :p

no its not adding more weight to the car it just involves adjusting your spring platforms slightly so that all 4 wheels press down on the ground evenly

ps i didnt want to say that your car was heavy enough :p:clown:

Surely that all goes to pot as soon as you stick a driver in the car:question:
