Lowering a cup

[Iain C]

Anyone lowered their cup /172 them selves?

IS it a difficult job?

Am thinking of doing it.

springs or springs/dampers or coilovers ?

 

[Iain C]

just springs

 

[Turkish]

pretty straight forward tbh easier in a ramp but can be done at home with a trolley jack spring compressors and the correct sockets, youll need a swan neck spanner for the front shocker top nuts but apart from that and the spring compressors you will probably own most of the tools reqd already.

The fronts are a pain though to get back in. The rears are 10 minute job. Thanks to me who updated the guide to point out the different sized bolts for the 172 Clio over the normal clio
