Douggie Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 yes everyone has the problem with the rears...you either need the FK shorted springs... or go to that place i linked... its 45 quid .. and they will re use ure spings but make them shorter... and still fit all the adjusters and all that!

niallod Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 shocks from a vauxhall corsa b will cost about £20 and are alot shorter then either chop a coil or two off the spring or get them compressed is what i done when i ran static... worked a treat.

Little Green Giant Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 corsa springs are pig tailed both ends and are MUCH shorter! would be better just to chop chop chop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north wales loop Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 (edited) me and my bro are in the process of getting some custom ones made, will be shorter and a lot harder so we can run low without much travel = no rubbing!!! happy days. also looking into shorter shocks.if they are any good we will possibly be ordering a batch and possibly selling them on here.

jackCLD Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 i've found a problem with going lower on the front because of the driveshalft clearance although its not knocked yet, has anyone had a problem with that? and ive got corsa coilover dampers lying around but they were so cheep is it worth using them???Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niallod Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 chasis notch. although you can run it sitting on the driveshaft and it will self notch.. to be this low though it will be about 90-100mm low.. only able to do this with helper sprangs out in front.
