started on the suspension today didn't go brilliantly to be honest lol
first was getting it onto my mates drive
as you can see the exhaust came clean off the bracket was facing down so caught the curb and slid out of place ripping the rubber hangers off with it. got 2 new rubbers for £1.10 so not all bad.
the new shocks
the old (as you can see they're knackered)
old vs new. i dont understand why someone would risk chopped springs. im glad im getting rid.
well thats about as far as we got in the few hours we had on it today. we undid the rears at the top but couldn't get the bolt out at the bottom so they will be grinded and wacked out but ive got to wait untill tuesday until i can get replacements. im also going to be replacing the front cv boots, ball joints and track rod ends so they will all be ordered on monday and hopefully have them by tuesday also.
this is how the car stands atm without a rear spring
SLAMMED lol
also the rear shocks are adjustable from 60mm to 80mm and just wondered what height people would recommend
