Title: New car!
Post by Kjetil S on Aug 29^th, 2006, 8:07pm

Well almost ;D

I have now replaced all four shockers (with Monroe Original) plus front springs (Kilen) and front anti roll bars, in addition to previously replacing the front bushes. Feels just like a brand new car. Can't wait til I get the rear springs replaced, as they are 4-5cm too low.

Had it for a test drive now, flew over some really bad gravel roads filled with pot holes without the car even shaking ;D

Btw, the original front shockers were probably some of the worst I've seen in my life. It took only a light push with one arm to fully depress them, and there they stayed for about half an hour. (No, sorry, I'm not kidding, but I wish I were)

Around bends it does, as it doesn't try to roll over and die anymore ;D
