will get pics of it raised soon, but none just yet. Its pretty much level with the front now.

The torsions bars seem fine..... they cant really go wrong they are likely just slightly wrong with regards to matching the splines etc

How did you do the axle? No reason why you cant get them to sit exactly even.
Did you slide the arms rite off or did u remove torsion bars to adjust?

just did it the spline way first to raise it by 1 spline on both sides (30-35mm)

So.... the setup must be squewed.... hence why i'll need to removce both bars... and refit correctly with the radius arm as the same height

doing it by splines is not accurate


measure it properly and it will be spot on

clean.... gtf

Got some vids too.... will upload them sometime soon.

Had a great day...... got to learn how to handle the pug a bit more.... with a really quiet track too!
Even went out (pas) in the 996 GT3RS..... and hit the tyres

Front of the car was a bit bouncy.... but the back was much better.

Tyres werent lasting very long though, but the brakes were very good again.
