Tony has gone off to visit some family and left the car at mine…he’s given my a list of bits to look at on it (cheeky) but the main point was to get her lowered.

So picked the car up on Sunday afternoon and with the help of Frosty, we set to it to drop the axle.

Few pictures

Something to get us started, incentive from Tony



First job, removing the locking wheel bolts as some helmet lost the locking key.



No pictures of before but shock bolts were a pain along with the eccentric washers (Standard though). So this is the Passenger Side arm and it came off fairly easy and the bearings remained intact





Drivers side was a little more of a sod but it came apart with extra persuasion



Bearings intact – torsion bar still stuck in :S But we got her out and set the height a mere 60mm drop.



The car, bit stacked in the shed tbh





The extra persuasion required



Greasing her up, ready to refit



New Washers and grub screws



Frosty looking pleased with himself



And back on the ground outside, looks broken tbh



Had a white cyclone lying around, so just fitted it to see what it would look like.



Few Peugeots kicking around now



The plan is to drop the front tonight as Jimbo has built up some other shocks and springs so I believe he is popping over to help, along with Frosty.
