Hi guys, I'm trying to get my front suspension on. Now everythings attached but I have a couple of issues that I just want to check, because I'm not sure if I've got it right or not.
1. I haven't done up the top strut nuts tight yet, but when you look at where the strut top fits up into the car/top plate, it doesn't seem central if that makes sense, the top of the strut it's more pointing towards the outside and not sitting central in the rubber that sits in the strut housing. Is that right? Everything else is on and looks about right.
I did wonder if this will right itself once the car is on the ground?
2. When I put the lower arm into the hub and tightened the pinch bolt up (before putting the track rod in as obviously that attaches the steering rack) it feels quite stiff as you try and turn it left to right. Is that normal?
ps I'm fitting Konis and those slightly extended shafts if that helps.
