Hi all,

 

Ok I had some dead bushes in my front upper wishbone, bought two replacement bushes to replace every bush in it and turns out that I actually need four... excellent.

 

So I got angry and bought some adjustable upper arms and eibach springs I've been wanting to do this for about 5 years now so to say I'm excited is an understatement.

 

From memory I can get enough adjustment for the camber on the rear using the stock arms. My car is currently stock suspension wise apart from KYB AGX shocks, but in the future I plan to upgrade the roll bars. Should I do that before I have it all set up? Is there anything I've forgotten? I'm expecting setting the camber and front toe to cost me about £100 so I'd sooner fit all the parts I need now rather than get it wrong and have to have it all set up again.

 

Cheers

Any Pics Russ?? :rockon:

Nothing useful so far, only these have turned up :)

 

Im looking to lower my car aswell, ive got those arms on the list and the rear ones aswell, and obviously some springs, but do i need all the adjustable torsion bars for the back, ive seen them for sale also?

no torsion bar on the back mate, std coil springs

 

to lower the car you should just need the front and rear camber arms.

 

changing the arbs should not effect geometry so you could get it setup before

Same ones as ive got on mine. A good solid piece of kit and very adjustable.

Cheers Dougal, looking at ARB prices I'd sooner spend the money elsewhere on the car for now until I settle into this new setup and progress it from there.

 

Dave, yeah I like them, feel pretty solid. They're from Driftworks but look exactly like Powertrix parts to me :-) Did you do the rear arms as well?? Again I'd like to save the money for something more important but I don't want to be mid way through my setup and realise I've not go enough adjustment.

 

Cheers

No, i just got front ones. Should ov got rear adjusters too tho. Would be wise to get them, will cost you more in tyres if ya dont.

How much did you lower yours by? I think I'd get away with the bit of adjustment available in the stock setup but hmmmmm

thats good then, i saw lots of adjustable stuff and thought i might need it all, good news though.

Depending on how low you go you'll need adjustable tension rod arms I think, I'm just going 0.8" (Eibach springs) so think I'm ok.

Car sat 70mm from floor , sat on 19" wheels.

Before you spend your money on the rear camber arms, check to see if you have enough adjustment from the original arms, they have some adjustment on the inner pivot bolt I think.
