rear dampers

[leej]

i have spax dampers adjustable wanted to know best way to higher them and what i need to do to get it level

cheers

They dont adjust the height. they adjust rebound or compression rate or both.

[leej]

so i cant heighten the back?

[Mochachino]

Higher*
Raise**

Yes you can raise the rear of the car, but not by adjusting your adjustable dampers. You have to remove the torsion bar, adjust the height of the trailing arm and put the torsion bar back in.

If its not level, You might be best taking to to a garage mate.

[leej]

its level but because i have 17s on it rubs going round roundabouts, i was told that i could higher it with the tool from the person i brought it off, anything to sell a car

[jasonmayall]

best thing for you to do then, is get a new set of wheels! 17's are far too big!

[Mochachino]

lol 17's back to the early 00's

Aye get rid! Get some 15's or something.

[devilsadvocate]

17's are going to rub mate, especially if its been lowered.

Smaller wheels or raise the back.

[leej]

looks like im raising it wheels are mint and i like them

[jasonmayall]

Have you got any pictures of said wheels on said car?
I'm intrigued...

The adjuster on the Spax dampers will just either turned one way make them hard, or other way make them soft.

As said get some 15" wheels on :)

Is this the same Saxo as in the picture on the other thread?

[leej]

yes not worth posting on 2 threads

[devilsadvocate]

To be honest, with the large bodykit 17"'s are needed otherwise it will look stupid so your only option may be to raise the rear.
