cheers! it willl be awesome!! nope there isnt any rattling anymore, my dad twisted the backbox so the tube going above axle had more clearence, also turned the bracket upside down, its a pain in the arse to tighten the bolts but it gives it a lil more room also my dad cut a peice of tyre to go around the axle to stop any knocking

i thought it was so low because the springs were old but i had a look when i was doing the dampers and they look brand new :S so i think it might have been lowered, other standard springed corsa`s rears look like my front end

started work on my old wheels this morning, going to fill all the curb marks because who ever had the car before me must have constantly been driving against the curb haaha, im going to spray them gloss black, they will be going back on the car once there done as the cav expressions keep smacking the arches on bumps, once i can afford 195/45/15`s the expressions will be going back on and will be lowering it around the same time.


i have just finished sanding down all four of the wheels most of the curb marks are out but im going to fill the deep ones in later in the week
