Replaced front and rear wheel bearings replaced L/H inner cv joint degreaesed and re packed the rest changed out torn boots (thanks Matt GTI Performance) fitted the Jom coil overs and WOW!!! new car so much nicer to drive these Joms ride great.Getting a wheel alignment done 2 morrow may even go another 30mm down front and back have 50mm of thread left front and rear





Stage 1 complete now save my pennys for some wheels the more i look the more i start to swing to 14'' think they may be themagic number in my mind for a mach1 widened of course with some super stretched rubber

Needs to be lower! hahahaha

Glad to see she's holding her own weight again though!

[captainvw]

dont they always ........soon enough just need to get rid of these balloons im driving on lol

Looks great. Good to see somebody with their coils wound down!
Are they JOM? Is the ride as terrible as I expect (marginally better than cut-springs)?

No front bumper FTW!

[captainvw]

Yes there Jom's...After driving a slammed 58 bug (30mm off the ground) daily fo 3years and then this with the coil inserts and standard struts it now rides like a caddy seriously it rides great firm but not harsh spring rated and dampening must be matched well because there's no bouncing at all couldn't be happier and for the price they are a steal!

[Jace]

Me doing this with HSD coilovers (pretty low on the price range of coilovers) has made me want some quality ones next.
I'm probably going to throw extra cash out and get KW's or Weitec's. Not top of the range ones but the best I can afford.
Basically I've had an uncomfy experience and want to step it up. I guess like you have!

[captainvw]

Think it really depends on what hieght you set them at also obviously if you adjust it to sit on the bumpstops its going to ride like **** ,the hieght i have it set in the photo's rides really nice. Might get another inch out of it but its just not worth sacrificing ride quality for a daily this thing will always be a 4x4 compared to my bug anyways

[Jace]

That's fair enough. I'm interested to see how they ride at a sorta sensible height.
