As a bove ive been to all or phoned all of my local vauxhall garages and none have any ramps or anything i will fit on
Anybody else had this problem and what did you do about it
It shouldnt be a problem as by the next time i should hopefully have coilovers and so will easily be able to higher the car up but i ned a solution now as i want to keep the Vauxhall stamps going

tell em they are lying, if we can get a racing beelte on our mot bay, vauxhall can get yours on their ramps, they will have to do the service on a four post lift instead of on a two poster....lazy fcuks!!

No seriously i have seen it going onto a MOT ramp and that was with 195/45/16 tyres and it was literally 1-2mm away form the ramp on skirts now im on 195/40/16 tyres and it will definatly not fit
And a four post dont work cuz i cant even get a small 2 tonne jack under my sideskirts

borrow some spring spacers (what they put on the springs when new cars are deliverd) or borrow some standard shocks and springs, failing that we have a posh lift that sits flush with the floor..

Thought about standard shocks and that but then i gotta pay to get srpings and shocks fitted then pay Vauxhall for a service and MOT then get old springs and shocks put back on, it is an option but i long haul and expensive one, would springs spacers work???

and if you can't jack the car up then you can't get the suspension off either
