Our new SPAX kit


Lets begin with the rear.
After an inspection of all rear bushings revealed no problems or issues that needed to be attended to, it was decided that we could move forward with the assembly and intsalation of the new shorter travel shocks and adjustable springs.

The OLD...and the NEW.

TO BE CONTINUED.......

.....And finally, a look at our front coilover set-up.


Assembled with NEW Febi/Bilstein upper strut mounts & bearings






Here's where things get interesting.....after installing the 18" BBS rollers, we immediately noticed that there was a clearance issue.
The tires were making contact right at this location. (see below)


The solution....we machined some thick 5 X 100 FK spacers down to achieve our desired clearance.


The finished product, front wheels sit nicely in the arches and do not protrude out past the fender lip.

how much did the whole set up cost?
