I now have some 2'' narrowed ball jnt front suspension beams for sale priced @ $475 ea . These are new factory beams with adjusters installed , that are sold through CB performance . They are intended for left hand drive use and require some minor modification to the steering damper location for use in right hand drive applications . I also have the narrowed torsion leaves if you dont want to narrow yours for $ 60 a set , ROD 02-42729920.

More boost + More fuel = More power

The torsion leaves go inside the top & bottom tubes going across the car. Thats what keeps the nose off the ground instead of springs. The torsion leaves are what the trailing arms are connected to, so when you narrow the beam by 2" you need to take the same amount off the torsion leaves. And your sway bar wont fit unless you buy a 2" narrowed one from CB or maybe Rod stocks them too.
