I guess each car is different...

But my car is just plain idiotic, has to get raised up but will try for in to be minimal

Drop the rear abit..Raise the front abit

Drop the rear abit..Raise the front abit

That's never a very good idea, your suppose to do the opposite :lol:

That's what the Flip Mount mod gets you... ;)

He must have.. I've read his ED38 thread..all he stats is 'i cut the frame up' ..

That car was the reason why i bought OZ turbo's :lol:

He had 50profiles on the tyres so the arch to rim gap is smaller and a little bit more ground clearance..

Maybe i should of went for them :?

And why does the driver's side wheel stick out more than the passenger?

What you mean it sticks out more?

  • Author

It protrudes more than the other side about 2 or 3mm..

Plenty of clearance! ;)

With the mount flip, was there much to it? Or is literally just cut the mount off and weld it upside down?..

Gunna get it done this month or next but just wanna know if theres any other work to get it sorted.

Measure, Measure, Measure....Then Re-Measure

Flip it then test fit it, them go from there..

Elongate the top hole (once flipped) for negative camber..

Oh yeah use an angle grinder spanner to take the shock from the housing or knock a tool up

Subframe alignment, bottom ball joit position?

  • Author

Maybe... i will look at it more tomorrow maybe the camber is way out..

I've heard of this happening on other polo's aswell..

But now...

Best-Cry-Ever-11.jpg

Has to get raised up 5-10mm

Rich any tip's taking rear helper spring's out?

Did the bumpstops get trimmed?

Fair play for being so low, but pretty fucking pointless really haha

I know man.. if only is was a static object.

Driving at 20mph everywhere is plain dumb.

If i had the money to do an epic engine things would be so different.

haha honestly when mine was a bit lower I got fed up so fast of scraping etc, and was nowhere near that low! It still annoys me now but yeah.

My job consists of driving and developing luxury cars, getting in my polo on budget coilies at the end of a days work is a bit of come down hahaha
