Managed to lift the subframe today. Spacers were 31mm so i chopped them down to 15mm as a trail fit to see what the room world be like for the shafts ect... all looks ok and and the subframe didnt look to be touching anything but its back to being very close! At least my wishbones have levelled out abit, tracking will be getting done saturday afternoon so fingers crossed it should stop scrubbing my tyres off. Daver6 has managed to knock me up some new spacers when he was it work today so they are all level instead of the terrible jobbie i done cutting them      Wishbones before:  After:   ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Na not been far, I couldnt turn at first. with me lifting the subframe it pushed the column up and i had to adjust it under the dash now all seems fine. could do with seeing if i can raise the gearbox a tad as i only managed about 8mm as i didnt want to raise the engine mount and dont really have much threads to play with anyway.________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Might lift it a little more. Drove it to work thismorning and steering feels abit stiff and when i let go of the wheel out of a corner it doesnt straighten its self up, i have to turn the wheel back myself.

Cant wait to get it painted and get my new wheels on over the christmas  ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |
