Looking to tighten up the loose rear end (!) on my RA.Particularly twitchy in the wet.
Standard suspension (well..are red shocks standard ?) as far as I know...
Maybe look to spend some cash and change the lot. Anybody have any ideas ?

cheers!

Hi

First things to think of...

Take it somewhere like powerstation for a 4 wheel alignment and tell them what you want the car to handle like before hand.

Check your tyres. What are they? are they all the same? what are the pressures?

Then start thinking about suspension...

you could fit a harder front roll bar, or go the whole hog and get a complete new set-up, but you will probably be able to sort your "twitchyness" out with the above

All the best
