raising strut tops for very low suspension
« on: 14 October 2012, 16:14 »
Hey fellas,
I'm probly dealving into the hot-rod and custom world here,
But, how difficult would it be to raise my mk3's front suspension top mounts into the 'bay so as to get loads more drop?
(Maybe then i could sit the spring platform at a reasonable position for comfort, and serious low's)

Just a thought.
(Maybe theres a kit available)

you cant easly raise them that much more. 

if your after mega low  and want comfrot yout pritty stuffed with uk roads as  the subframe is just going to hit the road with any serious spring defection so going to have to run stiff springs anyway.

all the VW's have gone bar 1.
