ive bought a rear axle with disk conversion on it, as now the 17's are on the corsa you can tell the original rear axle is slightly bent


all the rear callpiers have been stripped for shot blasting and powder coating, they just need the seals n pistons taking out first

Nice little project fella keep it up.

You may want to swap the rubber bump stops & spring adjusters around.

Rubber bit goes up the top & spring adjusters at the bottom
