Are they new springs? it will settle a bit if so. Why do you want to go lower than that? going to low will mess up the drive shaft angles etc and may make the handling worse not better.

just cos the back still seems to be sticking up...

also the front ns makes a weird 'boing' type noise when you full lock the steering, ive checked there seeted propperly too...

does it look a good height at the front to you??

Hard to tell with the angle of the shot but yeah it looks fine to me. Don't be fooled into going to low it's not really needed. It will settle a bit,are they new springs?

The back is a little higher, give it a couple of weeks to settle down. There is less weight at the back so it may take time to settle in.

sarnyboy 07 April 2007 06:08 PM

there not new springs no,, new to me though lol

we ll have to wait and see if she settles

I fitted used shocks and springs to mine and the back was a lot higher after being on the jacks for an hour or so. Give it time and then dicide what to do.

Other than that car looks good mate.

Something to do with the fact that you are parked on a hill :idea: ?
