I thoughti would put up a bit of an update and a few pics aswell.
I just had some nice shiny new coilovers delivered this week so hopefully gonna bash them on tomorrow morning and get the front slammed down, then order the lowerin blocks for the back once ive figured out what size i need. I have alse got new brake and clutch pedal rubbers cuz mine were very worn, just need to find the accelerator one now.

Went to lincoln for the weekend so decided to swap VWvase's wheels for mine with better tread on them. I think she looks sweet sat on the 14" Teardops. Time to see what 13s look like next Smile Here is a pic of both cars.

Here are a few pics of the caddy how she sits now.
Unfortuneatley one of the CV joints decided to pop a ball so tom sorted us a new one and should hopefully be on by the weekend. Then i can see if i need to remove the helper springs or not to get her to sit how i want, then its order the lowering blocks for the back Smile

take the coilies off mate and remove the 'helper' spring (the lower spring and its platform) , then just use the two platforms on the main spring, youll be able to get some more drop then


Very Happy

had to do a lil home arch rolling, so will get some pics of that when i jack it up next. Just gotta make sure its how i want it and so that it dont catch my tyres.
When i first put the blocks on went to drive down the road and all i could hear was it scraping so the hammer had to come out to sort it out. I am rather impressed with how it turned out. Will prob have to get a video so it can be appriciated properley

just a hammer with a flat and a round end. used the flat side to start to bend the metal then used the round end to shape. i will let you have a feel when she is at the next meet see what you think to the skills
