try shocks
Yeah parkers were purchased at the same time. c1 did a lovely wiring job with them.
Light bulbs were also acquired when diff gears were purchased.
Bonnet colour will be changing.
As for swaybar, the car seems to flop around a lot, like you'll turn in, then the weight of the car will sort of throw
it in more than you want, was thinking swaybars would help reduce this.

looking mucho better-er
Re-bushed trailing arms
Re-bushed and ball jointed LCA's
QFM Pads
Putting my T-Series in while the diff is out to do the trailing arms, the current one has mass freeplay, leaking wheel cyl and whines like hell. Although I've been told my 4.3's are apparently in pretty ave condition, going to get a second opinion. Hopefully they aren't ruined.
Looking like I might be going to Japan in Feb, so will prob stop spending money on this until then. I don't think there is much more holding me back from driving it again though. Just diff centre really.
Received some goods the yesterday.
Consists of AJPS coilovers, Bilstein inserts, 5kg Springs with helper springs, braced stub axel, Cusco camber tops. Rears are Bilstein shocks, 3.5kg springs and adjustable spring seats.
Every thing looks really well made, haven't got it in to test it out but I'm sure it will impress. It was a bit of a toss up between these and the shockworks coilovers, but in the end there were some design things that I liked more in this set up. The camber top design for example, shockworks just looked a little more 'generic' in a way than the cusco, and haven't had any troubles with the last pair, so why change. Spring seats don't bolt in, they rely on the springs to hold them in place. They also don't run a helper spring in the front. Anyway, look forward to getting these in and getting some driving done.
Are the bilstiens short stroke?
MOPAR or no car!
If the springs are captive you'll never have to worry about the seats falling out also inr gards to helpers they aren't needed due to the base height adjustability, spring heat stays the same. Either way at least you got some quality gear. Looks good!
Was about to post the same thing as you shifty haha, base height is amazing.
Gear will feel awesome though! This car is cool
they are short stroke, I have some at work I can show you if you like - or can take you for a ride in a car with them - trying some different things in the front of my car soon so will be good to see the difference
I like the helper springs as I need a bit more stroke and droop for the roads I drive
photos look good oscar, you can take some for my site, my phone cam ones arent cutting it haha

Yeah I see where you're coming from, they are just little details. But when looking at 2 good products, it's the little things that will sway peoples minds. Eg: not everyones springs will be captive the entire time. And if there is a place to bolt it to, why not bolt it in just as a bit of a security thing, so that you know that your rear end isn't just relying on weight to hold it in place.
Thanks Dave, happy to help out. It's about time that site sees an update.
