domandmel Posted October 27, 2011 Author Share Posted October 27, 2011 Looks good mate , I wish i had your know how about mechanics . Would of saved me a few hundred quid if I could do everything myself.been doing this stuff for a while, and working at a garage helps, but it really is all self taught tbh....there is only so much teachers and books can teach you, but get stuck in and you find out loads more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

domandmel Posted October 28, 2011 Author Share Posted October 28, 2011 that is bit weird james....the springs i got were sport springs or something!? i wasnt given a choice of differen types when i ordered the....and u cant imagine the shoks would make a difference, unless the standard shocks on mine allow a bit more drop because they are not uprated?
