Would defo be nice to have it lifted :)

Don't have a clue how though :lol:

Whuuuuut..

You, you lifitng your subframe or you happy asis? i know theres afew on here wanting to go lower and all that.....

Lifting subframes is being absolutely fucking silly tbqh! Fair enough if you wanna run low, but if you wanna go lower than possible, then don't piss arse about, just put up with not being able to! 'Lows' aren't about being fashionable anymore, its about who can be the biggest idiot and get lower than everyone else.. For a week untill they split a sump.

Rant over..

It's the front which I don't think is low enough, and the back can come down a little more, still have plenty of room in my massive arches.

That's with helpers still in btw lol, haven't taken them back out after the MOT yet.

My old raceland helpers and the main springs are almost half the size of the ones I'm running on my TA's now, so I'm gonna have a play about and see if I can get it lower with the other springs so I don't have to deal with driving around a bouncy castle again :lol:

Remember 10mm Bumpstop help's.

I personally think you should space the backs out like 5-10mm, and bring it down so that the arch is sitting just over the tyre, would sit so nice.

Just think the arches are too flared now as the wheels sit too far in IMO.

Why did you put the helpers in for the MOT? Could have just winded them coils up.. alot :lol:

Thats what I did for mine.

:)

I know what you mean.

The arches are based on how it sat before I took the wheels off though, when I get it back down to how it use to sit the wheels fill the arches perfectly :)
