Wow! what can i say, what a difference, proper little go cart now:p and looks great slammed. One thing though, if i take a round about on a bit of a camber there is a noise like the tyre hits the top of the arch. Is this normal when you lower a car so much.

means you can move adjust the height up and down. They will prbabaly be still in.

How low is it sitting at the back? Will see the pics and let you know. ;)

Well i asked for a 50mm drop but it looks a lot lower to me. So if the adjuster cup is still in is this bad??

No, adjuster cup still in is fine.

If its right down on the bottom it will be a 70mm drop.

I took mine out so its sitting on its hoop. :lol:

get the pics up and i will have a look. :lol:

Adjuster cup...... Purple(could be any colour but KW's are purple) thing that the spring sits on. If you take it out then the spring sit in the axle seat, like standard setup does. Therefore I could get an extra 30mm drop maybe out at the back end.

The Eibach Adjuster cups are Black.

So as Ric2001 says, if this is there then its still in.

It just didnt sit low enough for me with it in.

Get the pics up today. :lol:

How easy is it to take this cup off? Ive heard its not safe to do so?!? I dont want to make the car unsafe, but liek you I have pro's on mine and it sits nice on the front but the back is just too high! How much does it drop then?

Its really easy to take it out.

I adapted a sping holder so the spring sits in a base. I done it in an hour or so.

Im sure its dropped another 20-30mm without a doubt. Sits perfect for me now.
