Spot the difference?
![[Image: ride_height.jpg]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v363/toastmonster/ride_height.jpg)
Seized fairly solid.
Not risking pulling the arms and having bearings fall apart today.
Least it didn't rain too much :/
Anyone recommend a good refurb kit, might aswell drop the beam and give it the once over.
Noticed both brake flexis need doing too which is an arse under the car.

Yes they are the same photo, and the point being made there is that he spent hours working on it and didn't manage to change a thing :roll:

Exactly this, I at least thought it was going to be before, well one way, and after wheel a different way.
I understand he couldn't work on it as it was seized but I spent about 5mins feeling like I was playing an impossible game of spot the difference

soz for the confusion, and in all fairness I did resist replying to look a bit harder for the subtle differences.

This rear beam can get bent
Had another go at lowering, and bashed the crap out of the arms to no avail, didn't budge a mm
but then I heard jacked up rears are the new 'in', so all good ... :/ :cry:
