yet another brake problem

Post by wayne the wheel »

hi all

my car is a 1.6 16v sport on a s plate it has been lowered 45mm, when i slam on in the wet the back end locks up witch can be fun sometimes but not when you arnt ready for it.

i was told that it might be the load spring on the rear beam i have had a look under my car and it has got a spring on the rear beam but i dont know what to do with it.

have you guys got any ideas?????

thanx

thanx for the info guys i will try the thing with the spring as for the abs and pumping the breaks i know all about this as i drive a 38 tonn car transporter and i have driven this in the snow not very nice i can tell you.

i have also raced an old vauxhall magnum in superbangers first with the original 2.3 in the i put a 2.8 v6 in it and i used to get the backend right out when it was wet very good fun

again thanx
