I enjoyed my time with you, found your video very entertaining, I would have thought that the rear would have dropped a bit more than it did. guess that's what I get for thinking. Ok on to your body and trim video. A nice part of the globe you live in. I am in Montana also lucky, I have relatives in Cork, for whatever that's worth lol.

The shed is looking good mate! Those struts are a real pain on the swivel housing pinch bolt. French cars have them too. I made a tool to pry it apart from a bit of rod made it oval enough to fit the gap then you can turn it so it will pry it apart enough for the strut to just slide out. Also I remember doing the rear axle bushes on the MK4 are a right PITA

Coilovers are smoother than lowering springs
@bluudysgarage
@bluudysgarage 5 лет назад
Depends. Cheap coil covers. I very much doubt it. You get a decent set where you can adjust the shock and rebounce. By adjusting the stiffness then probably.
