any ideas ??

VWCOOL - April 26th, 2006 at 12:13 PM

do you want to narrow it for a Looker? Or make it wider for an off-roader?

The two pieces with the shock towers go in the bin. You wont need those.
Cut torsion leaves to suit centre section and install trailing arms. Shim up with modified 'coke' cans if fit is sloppy.

Surely your not serious!

Cheers Dave

I would think the middle bit should go in the bin, and then it will be narrow enough to lower the front about 300mm. Must use valve springs in place of shockers for decent suspension setup. I find Alfa Romeo valve springs fit just right.:rolleyes:

Craig Torrens - April 26th, 2006 at 05:14 PM

Picture 2

You are looking at the back of the central tube with the steering dampener on the left.

Move the piece on the left to the right and the piece on the right to the left and keep them both facing the way they are in the picture.
