Ian w Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 To be honest I would not waste my time on it, they are an entry level car with poor back up from the importing company. Get it going and have some fun with it but don`t spend to much on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

II SMURFY II Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 does any one have any ideas as to how I can lower the ride of my car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Willis Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 You can lower the ride height by moving the ball head screw that the bottom of the shocks mount to down into the lower hole. Also use the pre load screws, unscrew them to the top to lower, screw them down to heighten. You should be able to do this for all four shocks. Just remember, the lower your car, the smoother and cleaner the running surface should be to prevent damage to the bottom of the chassis plate, flywheel or spur gear.
