Re: [DML] Re: Lowering Springs

[Martin Gutkowski <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I second everything said so far. On a lot of cars, the toe-in adjustment 
required after lowering the rear can take the number of shims on the 
trailing arm bolts beyond the limit of five, although I think this limit 
was set due to the strength of the bolt, so I guess having Inconel bolts 
allows the number to be increased.

There are several cars in the UK running around with front springs on 
the rear and we've had one in that had eight shims on one side! 
Personally I have Grady's shocks and DOC front springs - my front end is 
lower than I'd like but the back is fine.
