Cheers mate,i hope it does

Two sets?

That's why i want it done as soon as possible because when tyres cost £70 a go you don't want to be wearing them out quickly

reeves
thats right pal?
most vauxhall do a FULL GEOMETRY ALIGNMENT with lasers which requires car jacking up checking for the suspension components before adjusting on a plate.
they do camber and castor adjustments.
oratleast did at the dealer i worked at
evans halshaw vauxhall leeds

How long would you say to have the tracking and camber done would be?

The place i think i'm getting it done says they have to have the car it all day! That isn't happening! Isn't it an half an hours job?

standard front tracking isabout 30mins tops. dependant on how seized tie bar locknutsare pal.
and when we did the laser geometry alignment took slightly longer maybe tops of 1h iirc.
we charged 45£ but i left 3 years ago so dont hold me to it

Imo u dont need full laser mate the camber can be set up by yourself using a spirit level lol thats what my grandad did before all this laser business iv always done it on my cars wi coilovers and the backs dont need adjusting as its a fixed rear set up only the tracking should need doing pal. Whats the ride like on the fks

That's pure sexiness Dan! Nice work will have a proper look when I get home

Edit: Looks better on the lappy Love the oval exhaust I was thinking about getting one, you still going to put the 100mm springs on then?

Also what's next mate? Look forward to seeing this in person

Looks very nice. Can't help but think the exhaust needs to be raised slightly though and the griffins on the mud flaps painted or something?!
