99hjhm Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Do you think the mechanic knows what he's doing??? I'm thinking he might have got the tracking totally wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatGed Posted October 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Do you think the mechanic knows what he's doing??? I'm thinking he might have got the tracking totally wrong.Yeah i think he tracked it up and did the camber for the stancard suspension. They are jamex coilovers and they were ok until he started playing.Do you think i should go to a performance car specialist to get it done.... will they have more of an idea???Thanks matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
