Giving a 405 Sport Wagon another chance

3 minute(s) of a 111 minute read

End up buying a drill press today to finish modifying top spring seats which end up working great. I was too exited about installing BCs that I haven't had the time to finish mounting my new drill press.

BC's end up on MI16 and tomorrow I'll install AVO's on my Wagon.

Installed AVO's on Wagon but I haven't had a chance to lower rear more or install rear shocks. 

On the left is stock shock with Eibach liwering spring and on the right is my AVO set up that came off my MI16. 

I still need to deal with rear shocks before I drive it Rabin but I'll definitely report back.

Finally found some time to lower the rear. Lucky it's California car so getting T.B's out was extremely easy. Also found out that rear muffler baffles came a part which would explain rattling noise at idle. I'll visit parts cars once again tomorrow.

Rear end is lower then the front,I could quickly get the front more down but I really don't feel like slamming this car as well so I'll just bring the rear up for 10mm.

I was surprised too see that AVO rear shocks were shorter then stock.

Frim left to right.
