My car failed MOT today because spring was fully compressed as the cars lowered causing the rear to overbrake....just wondering how others got round this problem??

Thanks

can adjust it, get a longer spring, stretch the springs so it is longer and does not compress the valve the whole time, or take the spring off so its constantly depressed (depending on your mot place)

undo where the spring goes onto the chassis and move it closer to the axle thus decompressing the spring
