needs tracking looking at after steering mod and there was some play in the draglink bolts.
 
Dunno what I've done.
The passenger side front wheel camber is ridiculous while the driver side is fine.
There is a little play in the draglink thingies.
But this morning I noticed I had no suspension on the passenger side:eek:.
The arm is sitting on the bumpstop:eek:.

I thought it my be elts old problem of the torsion bar bolt snapping:nenau.
Only had a quick glance as had nice clean cloths. But all looked there?
Not man may point summat out:doh

Speaking of nice clean clothes.I'm glad I put work clothes on for lane day.as Elton covered me in no small amount of mud when he was stuck:lol

that's probably cos the torsions are wound up to the max so you lose all droop travel.
I lowered mine down a touch to correct the camber and give me a bit of travel.

Other side is fine?????
And wound up as much.will have a looksee
 
Top vids mate:thumb2
Just waiting for mine to upload:(seem to be taking forever
 
Steve, have you checked your comp rod bush/mount ?
Also it's not un heard of for the top arm to bend, unusual but poss. Check top arm bushes too.
At the back end I noticed your tyre is catching in the wheel tub. You may need to trim some wing away or fit a bump stop so as to restrict the last bit of up travel.What can happen is that wheel will jam/ brake and so the other will spin early. Could also be your panhard rod if it only happens on o e side ;)

comprod bushes knackered.top arm bushes knackered.
as for loosing travel with bump stops noooooo:eek: don't mind making me truck lighter and cutting bits off:D

but that doesn't explain why my passenger side front wheel looks:beer drunk.
and if the torsion bars are wound up doesn't that give you more clearance from arm to bump stop not less?
passenger side is sitting on stop.
I will start new thread after taking some daylight pics
 
I meant the rear bump stop mate ;)
My rear wheel arches are trimmed for 35s but when I had 33s on they were wider ones and only just polished the paint on full flex. There's such a fine line with tyre width and wheel offset .
Start the new thread and we'll go from there :D
Pissed front wheel/camber could also be ball joint collapse :eek:

I know you meant rear bump stops:thumbs.
Don't want loose travel at rear either.
Yes will get on it and start new thread
 
Brilliant photos and videos guys, glad you had a great time. May be next time Ill come along with you.
 
You might call me mad but I would have happily turned round and gone back up :cool:
Not saying I would have made it but would be fun trying :lol
