Liam-R Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 Will my car pass an MOT with the rear adjusters out? Wanna go hella low and considering taking them out tomorrow but have MOT Monday. Will this matter? Also my headlights top plastic clip thing has broken meaning I can rock my headlight forward and back (only minimal) but pretty sure that it will fail with insecure headlight Ideas??

Liam-R Posted February 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 Well it's kinda hard as im in the forces and the weekend is the only time I can work on my car. I would like to do it tomorrow but I'm not even sure it will be possible to go lower because of my tyre hight... Basically a test tomorrow to see if it's ok. I think it should Be fine but dont want tyre fouling on arches... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadmetal Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 The spring will not be fully seated whent he car is jacked up without the adjuster rings in, wich would be a fail.I say just wait till next weekend, then you wont have to worry about it.

From what he says he's a "mechanic" who will generally be working miles from any action with easy access to a comfy bed and tea and biccies.Most RAF personnel don't fire guns.
