just wanting a bit of info really, iv got a let in my corsa with a f28 box. first of all the tie bar was touching the gearbox so i got some lowering blocks from chris astley.
now with these fitted it doesnt touch the box but is very close and will touch when the suspension moves.
has anyone else had this problem? the only think i can think of doing is mounting the tie bar on the bottom of the wishbone instead of on top with some spacers inside

thanks

you need to put spacers in also as it will crush the arm otherwise.
