I think we have calculated your problem.

[GAZ W]

If we use your rear springs and my old front springs we could have the lowest mk2 around...lol

Bump stops are for Girls Brian! Get them off!
Seriously looks sweet... i`m jelous... wanna swap back springs??

[pockets]

i only have about 1" between bump stop and chassis and im using 2" blocks with no rubber bits. its fine around here and im in the highlands!

closest things to the ground are front x member and exhaust, ive not hit the x member yet!

i like it that low, try it out and see if anything catches first

Chuck away the packers Brian that's what I did and then turned up some parts at work to replace the standard pins in the springs. You could just get a local engineering firm to turn you up a couple of thick washers to fit over the spring pin and locate in the axle. The only concern I would have is that although the back of your car probably sits at a nice height just now, the springs will "settle" a bit with age, making it even lower. The front is definately too low though and will catch the front wing lips if you hit a bump with the wheel turned. I know it happened to mine and it wasn't as low as yours and that was with 220 lb springs on the front. What rate are your rear springs Brian?



Chris.

[Banishit]

200lb I have some 12" springs on the way already as I was looking at that myself chrisbo

I'm going to get the back cambered back up 2 " otherwise I wont be able to put anything /one in the boot back

[Chrisbo]

Eye, I meant the poundage of the rears Brian. 116's or 146's
