Nu-Del 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2009 what brand adjustables does it have It seems they are just stock struts with a threaded tube welded onto them at the front... f**king short springs and shortened shocks at the back... Not really the ideal way of doing it but its certed for them so Im guessing someone at some point thought it was safe enough to cert Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nu-Del 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2010 (edited) Seems the closer I looked at the black shell the more of a bag of sh*t it was... So left it up the drive and kinda ignore it... But now have a replacement shell According to the trademe ad the cam belt slipped and trashed the motor... So hopefully I can make one really nice car out of the 2 Edited March 14, 2010 by Nu-Del Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
