chuffed

i have at last done the suspension. well fronts at least. car feels like a mk1 again. no rattling or clunking. and she sits just about right now. front lower than the rear. not the other way round. i'm a happy man today. just thought i'd share the feeling. off to find some round abouts now. sunday morning blast.

gotta love that feeling :-) Off for a Sunday blast myself after a bacon sarnie... dubbers of the world unite 8)

Hey Wooders should it not be the other way around, front higher than rear for best handling. What you using anyway ?

feels good dont it?

might see you down the back roads then? :wink:

bought a nearly new -40mm venom kit. they are renamed gmax jobbies. new top mounts and new lowering spring caps. anything would make it handle better than it was!


frank, i'll look out for in my rear view mirror.

th rear should be higher, this is to do with wight distrobution when on and off the power etc, when accel the wieght shifts rear with the rear higher it balances the car out and helps keep wieght on the front wheels for traction. and when braking it helps shift more wight forward due to the changing CofG to again keep the wheels doing the most work pressed firmly onto the ground. thats the brief overview

i had a brief overview and decided best to put them in the wash.
