blister Posted July 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 front strut mods? i have had a quick read and the rear beam can be modified to allow the spring to sit lower is this what you mean about the rear beam? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

si_leeds Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 seems strange, ive got coils on- loads of thread left on the fronts, and my car gets grounded out daily!Same here mate although my rears could do with being lower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blister Posted July 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 lol i have wound them down and i have about a key high on the front bumper,i think there is a thread i started recently (valuation) that has got a couple photos in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomjw Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 You can buy drop plates for the rears, makes the tyre sit more into the arch, think theres a company in USA that sell them, not sure on UK sellers, with fronts get the spring re-wound but if ur going mega low you'll need some under body work because ull damage something eventually lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
