Did you just jack it up then let it down again?

Takes a bit to settle.

If not, er, yes, get some 172 cup springs on there if you don't want to really lower it that much but just make a difference :)

check you have two white painted splashes of paint on your springs. This identifies a williams type.

:lol:

Nope aint had it jacked up this is how it has always been. Probaly why it handles so badley at high speed.

I'll check that the springs have white painted on sat.

Assuming they are not the right springs could it be that the car does not have the right suspension all together ???

does look very high, back will look lower when front comes down tho so i'd guess the back is right, way too much hassle to highten it n all, but wrong suspension up front could easily account for it lookin jacked up there! either that or someones put a 1.2 energy engine in there when u werent lookin! :P :wink:

That looks about as high as No 001 though doesn't it?

I remember thinking that was too high when I saw it at FCS and WSR last year lol

Okay so my springs had no white marks on at all. So got myself the correct ones.

I'm a bit worried that the dampers could also be wrong . Is there any way to tell if they are willaims ones ?

I need to replace the bumper as it is falling apart that’s why it looks a bit off. Although it has probably had a bit of a prang to cause it to break.
