Update time

Not exactly everything went as planned today , first issue was i didn't have a clue how to remove the rear spring to get at the adjuster cup and remove it, just thought id be able to pull the spring and it and would come out but that didnt seem to do it

Still learning how to do most things and my knowledge is not that good yet but do what i can so i ended up leaving the adjuster in for now (till i can get a mate to show me how)

Anyway time for some pics

unfortunately the coilovers rub the inner wall like f**k , so the old wheels have gone on until i get some spacers which should be only be a couple days hopefully

very happy with how its looking now - next is some 110/120mm rear springs and adjusters out :lol:

Looks well mate

To remove the rear springs just undo the 17 bolt at the bottom of the shock and the axle will drop down enough to remove it, make sure you stick a jack under it so it doesn't just rocket itself down

[CORSABM8]

Thanks

Okay cheers! job for another day i suppose haha

[CORSABM8]
