Author: usher, Location: northallertonPosted: Mon Aug 27, 2012 2:32 pm ---- certainly did as i need to car tomorrow so the height was guessed. turned out about 20mm higher than what it was.not sure weather i Will lower it more as yet as i liked it as it was.
think the height its at now is best for handling.
they made a nice improvement in feel from the back and make the car feel more solid

i presume you fit the 22mm torsion bar?
that could be why it is higher than you would have though
#22: Re: torsion bar help! someone must have some ideas! Author: usher, Location: northallertonPosted: Thu Aug 30, 2012 1:51 am ---- yeah the 22mm ones i put in. i knew the back would raise a little with the new bars but think its also one spline higher.
look on my project just put up before and after pics
