harri95 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I've just ordered some new springs to lower the car (35mm front , 30mm rear) and I have a rough idea of what to do from previous experience but looking on the web I can't find a single instructional guide? Does anyone have a link to one or could do a right up? Would be much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haynes manual is another option The only thing I find that can be a pain is the anti roll bar drop links. You are meant to be able to hold the centre with an Allen or torx key while you turn the nut but the usually rust and seize badly. They can be a hit or a miss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harri95 Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 Thanks for the info mate, will have a proper look tomorrow evening or just look in the Haynes as I think it probably is in there! Cheers for the other advice :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
