It's gonna be a right mare taking out my back seats so I can take out my parcel shelf so I can adjust the damping. Do you do any kind of extension bar so I can drill a couple of holes and poke it through the shelf??
:)
Cheers.
 
please can i see a pic of said items to see if they'de be usefull to me, as i have to remove a bolted on pannel to adjust one of mine :thumbs:
 
google found this:

Ooooooooh, they look handy - the top of my right rear is behind a panel in the boot, but a couple of those might make them adjustable from inside the car. No more running-with-stiff-damping-when-it-starts-to-rain-on-my-qualifying-run moments.

How long is the boingy thing?
 
From the top of where it attaches to the shock to the end of the adjuster is 155mm, so they extend 155mm over the normal adjusters. :)
 
:D I had to miss 2 rounds of BDC cos I was working, so the BDC money and the overtime have gone on parts.
It's way easier than making everything out of scrap, being poor sucks.


Sorry, I mean "I miss the satisfaction of creating my own solutions". Luckily I got a massive angry rent demand yesterday, so the days of cobbling stuff together out of shite are back. What can I make suspension bushes out of...
 
compressed cheese with a bored out cucumber insert?

Buff used fat heavy duty cab mount truck rubbers turned down on a lathe for subframe bushes on his old car.
 
Got them today - :thumbs:
But they're not what I was expecting :(

They're just too floppy, they have loads of rotation rigidity, as in you can turn the adjuster no problem, but they'll flop about in my RVM like a churchill dog.

Sorry guys but I'm sending them back.
I should have asked for a more detailed description really instead of assuming they'd all be the same.

Boo hiss etc etc,

No worries man.

were you thinking of some sort of rigid non floppy thing that just stuck right up.

They are floppy to deal with fitting in cramped and wierd shaped areas.
 
Aye, I just assumed they'd be exactly like the ones in the pic I posted, they look like they're made from the same stuff as whip aerials on the roof of cars.

I can see why bendy would be an advantage to some people though :)
