Title: A Good Day..........
Post by: Chaswin74 on 15 March 2006, 17:41
Just a quick one really as it was a good day....

Fitted new springs this weekend and ended up having to replace the rear shocks as well. Anywayas it was a lovely sunny day and as the new shocks arrived I thought I would get on with the job. So here are the results raised the height from approx. 60mm to 40mm drop with some with Eibach springs and now I can drive around without scapping the front on every bump.

So all in all after only having her 2 onths or so things are looking good....

The new spings put it about 35-40mm but I put new standard shocks on the back today and that lifted it up a bit (the old one's were knackered) so I recon 35 on the back and 40mm on the front. I think I'll replace the front shocks to even it out but it's got a nice stance at the mo.

Cheers
