just been thinking, you know you have to lower the front track controll arms if your fitting a F28 gearbox yea, and also if you fit a c20xe to stop the front end from pulling up, but if you fitted them to a 1,2 or 1,4 or 1,6 this would do the same thing wouldnt it? as in make the suspension harder.
just something i was thinking about thats all,
cheers

Re: tca / ie bar lowering
the reason for lowering on an xe is because the exhaust hits the antiroll bar no other reason for doing it

Re: tca / ie bar lowering
no mate it litrally is just for the zaust pipe to stop it hitting.
have you already fitted your xe mate ? if so which mounting holes did you go for on the front of your engine block ? bottom set directly above sump or the ones just above that ?

Re: tca / ie bar lowering
the top ones are for the mount the bottom ones are for the power steering mount if used
