Well it's down 45mm all round but I'd swear it was lower?

I've got about 10cm clearance on my front splitter if you wanna
check yours?

  looking good buddy got to sort mine out, unfortunately its developed
a serious oil leak. hopefully just the sump gasket needs replacing and not the
main seal.
Still i was thinking if the gearbox is off i might aswell have a new clutch what do you
think?
My 4 year old daughter has named the Anni Pepsi i dont know why and she is sad that
Pepsi is broken, so is her pops

Looking good on the collies!  quick question, you ordered HTs and ended up with TA technix, are they the same and defo have the 120mm max job.  I have just had the same arrive and i thought the TAs were only 80mm max drop.  just e-mailed them... i think that every time i see someone buy what looks like a blue set of HTs, a red set of TAs turn up???

Thanks buddy love your mk1  To be honest I never gave it a thought but I did email them and they said there 20mm to 120mm drop.I also asked the chap who fitted them and he said that mine have loads left to come down if I want so im pretty sure there 120mm drop sorry I cant be of more help what I will say is there great for the money

how come you had both inner and outer cv joints fitted rather than complete driveshafts?

In a nut shell and to be as quick explaining it as I can  Someone checked my car over as I had a bad clicking noise up front.Told me to buy 2 inner cv joints and he would do the job for me.I went and bought the parts as requested but little did I know that the spares place gave me 2 outers as I didnt check them.The guy who said he would do the job let me down so I took it to another garage.I asked for certian jobs to be done and said to the guy the cv joints need doing all the parts in the boot.He carried on and removed the outer cv joints as thats the parts he had in my car.The outers turned out to be the wrong size and he rang me to see if I could pick them up and exchange for the correct size but thats when I relised that the wrong cvs had been supplied and removed of my car  So I ended up buying the inners which was what I should have had from the start lol and having the lot changed just a nightmare to be honest

damn!.... well at least you know that you'll never have any problems with ya CVs again!
