    wheel off, suspension loaded??

    i want to see how far my coilovers are from the bump stops, however its quite low and the bumpstops are all the way up inside the chassis, and obviously the wheel is in the way, jacking the car up means the suspension isn't carrying the weight of the car! can i take the wheel off, and slowly...

    Rear brakes lock up far too early

    When i brake hard, the rear brakes lock up long before the fronts. The fronts are only half on and the rears will lock up, causing the back to become very unstable under hard braking. ive had to remove what looks like a load bearing valve from the back because of the lowness, and the rears...

    Shock bolt spacing??

    i have 52mm bolt spacing on my hub, if i bought a set of coilovers with a bolt spacing of 58mm, is there any reason why i couldnt mill the bottom hole 6mm toward the top one, then perhaps weld a washer over it to stop it moving, if the bolts are done up tight, and the top bolt is still...
