Johno

I've gone down the route of FK Konigsport Coilovers and Eibach ARB's front and rear.  Same issue on the front for me......rubbing the drive shafts. 

What size are the drop links that you've fitted to your car v the standard?

Thanks
Gregg

Johno fanks for the pics what drop links u recomend dude
well if you have the over the top loop i would say get the adjustable ones and cut them down to suit.
But it is entirely up to you, or if you wanted i could cut them down for you, i wish i did a thread when i did them.

Looks good buddy. I like it.
Thanks mate, long way to go yet tho.  :smug:

They are the adjustable ones from Venom motorsport, and i have just cut them down, think it was about an inch or just under that i cut off them. but it has stoped the rubbing.  :smiley:
