lowering a saxo mk1 vtr help/advice needed

[andymanc]

right, so if i buy a 35mm lowering springs, does this only include the front 2 springs? ive heard the rear suspension on a saxo is a torsion bar. if the 2 springs lower the front, wudnt it look out of place with the back not lowered,

or am i talking complete rubbish? let me know please

cheers
andy

so thats just for the front wheels tho yea? sunderland is a good 3 hours drive from manc! :P

[Steve]

and yeah 2 springs on the front torsion bars on the back, which are normally seized and to lower it you take the bars out measure the height and put them back in, not the notches method which i dont know what is, but if someone says how many notches walk away as its the wrong way to do it!

no its not mate! 2 hours or so, its for the front and rear done mate! some places down south charge more than that just for the rear!

[Steve]

you will use about £20 worth petrol getting there and back if do the speed limits, not far at all.... thought you were based at richmond, if so its about 45 mins or less from there

[Steve]

Just to clear it up....

£80 front and rear if you supply springs
£125 front and rear and he supplys springs

normally takes them 2 hours to do and he has people from all over the country going there
