Hmmmm Nice.

I raised the towers on my old golf 30m/m and a customers as well and it does alter the angles. I did it to stop the dreadful bottoming out of the shocks in the mk1. I bent a few struts and damaged valves in the bottom of Konis too many times in the early days of mk1s. Bottoming out shocks do not make for good handling either.

If you raise the tower at the same angle as the shock, you won't upset the suspension angle.. That, however, is not as easy as it sounds..

Yes, bottoming out suspension makes for a nervy car on a bumpy corner..

Its impossible to raise the lower control arm mounting points unfortunately.

Didn't they raise them in "The Bucket"?? Maybe that was the back... I can't remember.

I think they did actually... Although, how would you raise the rear mounting point of the control arm...hmm..

Don't people also move then when adapting a VR6 subframe into a mk 1? maybe...

i thought they cut and welded mk3 chassis legs so they can bolt in the mk3 subframe.

i think the bucket does have raised lower control arm mounts.

do they make these tie rod flip kits for other mks?

i have a few tie rod flip kits available if anyone is interested
