Bolting back up the rear control arms. Where the front of it attaches to the chassis, shouldn't there be a large flat washer on both sides under the big nut? PET shows a washer on the inside.
Next, how do I determine how many shims to use in my link bearing initial setup. Is there a measurement I can take? I have two 3mm and three 4mm. Be nice to get this dialed in at the start. On illustration 501-00 item #4 is called a stopper. Is that metal or plastic and what does it do? How do I determine what spring weight I have on my rear coilovers? Measure the diameter of the spring steel itself? Thanks! |

And the Schnoor washers on the three bts that hold the outer bracket must be replaced with new ones. |
