I picked up some local used torsion bars and slapped the thing back together yesterday. I also took the opportunity to lift it a bit, maybe a bit too much. Ended up with 28" to top of fender in the rear. 27.7 in the front. That's about 2-3 inch lift. God knows what my alignment numbers are but it drives OK. I made a funky tool for the camber and caster adjusters. One ratcheting wrench, one bolt and two nuts. Worked great.
Reversing lights work. Car settled 1/2" after a few test miles. I think I want to raise the front a little more yet.
I didn't get a baseline height for the rear as it collapsed but in this picture it looks quite high already. Stock height do you think?
We also removed the front chin spoiler before it gets torn off. It's for sale
Found these on the door step when I got home.
Oh my. Maybe these and some rally tires will make the lift seem less silly.
And 12mm spacers for the rear. This way we can run the same spec wheels all round.
Now I can get back to the important stuff like the radio.
Wow what a build! Thanks for sharing!
