Hmm, about the same size as the Foxes, must be compressing the gas in the body a lot to get an air spring the same rate as mine?

How big is the damper rod? See above  I'm not sure the ones I have there can be used like that actually Phil - will ask him. I think the coilover units instead of the torsion bars would probably be the way forward in the long run. Obviously not as quickly adjusted as yours though! Road trip to Rotherham soon then? 40p a mile I charge...  ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

It would be with turrets, but I looked at doing it in the standard position and decided against it - you'd end up going to a tiny piston and custom springs IIRC from measuring up, unless they can offset it somehow. Be interesting to see what they come up with. ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Bloody balljoint was 10mm too short so now have slight positive camber in order to get the toe in correct. Have 300 miles to do tomorrow so had to compromise.Shouldn't be too long. Rear dampers are now loads better than before and after a quick adjust to make them a tad stiffer it seems to be a big improvment on the konis (on stiffest setting). Body control is a lot better. Closer to what I am after! ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |
