Buggyeye Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 When I had mine fitter I only had it lowered 40mm. Anymore than that and it don't look right imo. Can't remember if I needed mine aligned as was ages ago but I would of thought so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 If you're fitting them yourself I took a few pic's and gave a few pointers when fitting mine on my sticky build thread. It's on the last last 2 pages (I think) Mines a classic but they're fairly similar [emoji6] I'd recommend getting some adjustable rear camber bolts too unless the coilovers you bought have adjustable rear top mounts . As lowering a car throws out the camber and there's no way to correct the camber with the oe rear bolts .Elbaich ones are only about £25 and yes I'd definitely get a 4 wheel alignment done afterwards , fella If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
