Nothing wrong with some lowering, it's stupidly stiff shocks that fuck the ride up

Ive just fitted some new Sachs has dampers and H&R's on mine, sits nose down at the moment, meet to re fit everything now and put some miles on it and see how it settles

First impressions are that it rides well.

The problem with the bootlid springs is usually a broken hinge. There's a lever that attaches to the hinge and the spring hooks into. It breaks. It needs a new - or s/h - hinge.

The "springs" are Z shaped rod that run the full width of the car. Refitting them requires a phenomenally strong vertically challenged person in the boot.

Blimey i thought i was proper sick when i gave you what i did Peter, but 300 sovs :eek:

It would be cool Kos if you could post up a couple of pics, and thanks for the info Boyd, i do still have those springs in the boot, the hinges on each side are cable tied together for some reason.

I presume also that the rubber strip that runs along the top of the rear bumper is held in with clips,its pretty mint behind there which is handy :cool:

How scary is it removing various trim parts looking for rust.

Thanks for all the comments and advice :cool:

Burger, pizza doughnut incoming Peter.
