Hi, my shocks at the back have finally sunk in, and now they rub!
Dont grind against the arch but squeek! Does anyone know how to raise the car a little without takin the torsion bar out again? Like better shocks or somthing?

It needs to be raised about 5mm and i dont wanna take the torsion bar out again.

Cheers

When i looked at a rsi's rear beam in a scrappy it was different to the one on the 1.2 as it was much larger and didnt have a obvious anti roll bar. where as the 1.2 is tiny and has a anti roll bar as well.
