UPDATE time
Spent a whole afternoon trying to lower the rear beam, now this really isnt anything new to me iv done this many a time now, this is the newest car/beam iv ever attempted so i thought it was going to be a breeze OOOOOOOHHHHHHH how i was wrong, Im a big believer in the pressing the TB's out methord and that slide hammers are dog shite,
So iv snapped 6 m8 hardened bolts, f*cked an 18" 1/2" wratchet, Flattend the inpact gun battery 10+ times half a can of plus gas, and half a can of 3in1 , and not a fecking dicky bird, sooo time to get pikey ............................. out comes the sledge hammer, spent an hour or so beating on the trailing arms put one hell of a flat spot on the bump stop part of the trailing arms on both sides and still not 1mm of movment on the bars. So these TB's arnt coming off whilst the beam is still attached to the car, so at present its still at full hight ,
All iv achived in that department is took it all apart cooper slicked everything and put it back together lol
In between all the in and shouting i did manage to spray the stupid to part of the rear lights so they now follow the body line and cable tie'd the TRS strap on
Anyway every ones fav part , the picy's
