dampners

[james__vts]

ive just bought a saxo vts and its lowered at the front 40mm and the back well high.

the person i bought it off gave me some dampners for the back of it.

but ive been told they wont lower the car.

help please.

They wont lower the car..

To lower the rear on a Saxo you need to adjust the torsion bar's..

[james__vts]

how hard is that to do?

[MaRiO89]

The theory behind it is easy, just undo a few bolts and slide the bars out, set it to the desired height and pop it all back in..

I never even tried to attempt it though as have heard some stories about how the bar's can become seized in place and near enough impossible to get out etc..

A garage will charge around £60 to do it..:y:

or you could just buy a whole suspension kit and get that fitted...then you wont need to lower the torsion bar....will you? :oops:

[MaRiO89]

Yeah, with a full sus kit all you get is dampers (front and back) and front springs..

Will still need to adjust the torsion bar but its only £60, not too bad..:)
