[Mike]

thats a hell of an improvement mate

[Normski]

and its still to come down about 40mm more at front :D and 20mm more at back.

figured out at last how i can do it, need to drive her onto some wood blocks or something then jack her up cause theres no jack low enough to get under and its nowhere near low yet so once thats done bingo :D

[tkm16]

looks awsome :D

[Mike]

cant wait 2 see the finished pics then m8, its like they say u cant role unless ur ride is low and u got nice shoes on it lol

[nicolec2]

said on RMS chum an ill say it again...looks fab so far cant wait to see it finished!!!! keep us posted!

[Normski]

cheers mike and Nicole and tkm :D

the white shoes are stayin :P she looks good in the flesh even at the mo, pics dont do anyones car justice, so when its finished i'm sure the shoes will look even better

[Richmets]

Massive improvement. looks great :wink:

[Mike]

lol nice 1 m8

[c2ology]

Sweet as an nut!

[Jimbo]

Looking really good mate, will look even better once its finished :D

[Normski]

cheers guys, couple of q's though if anyone can help, like jucca or anyone who knows.

front bumpstops, should they be removed? i'm guessing rear shorter bump stops help the ride a bit better than currently is.

and how do i wind these down, how do i use the hooks? instructions are in german.

cheers

[nicolec2]

lol german instructions....good luck chum!!

[Normski]

right peeps, help.

i know how to use the lowering hooks now, was playin about earlier but does anyone know which way i wind the red rings as seen in the pics to lower it, wind them up or wind them down?

cheers

[nicolec2]

any further forward with gettin fk'ed chum?

[Normski]

i know how to use the spanners now just dont know which way to screw them, up or down to lower it more.

[Normski]

i knew my old knowledgeable friends at the fiat forum would know the answer lol :


winding the red rings down will lower the car. Winding them up will raise the car.

The spring is compressed more as you wind up exerting more force which pushes the car up more. As you wind it down the spring exerts less force upwards and the car sits lower.

[Normski]

Fronts down beautifully now :D little to low for dad as the car found out on the kerb the other day :?

but once its washed, couldnt today due to poor weather, i'll get some decent pics up :D

[Nick-VTR]

if you can fit a coke can in your arches it needs lowering!
