   Hi,
   
   We are looking into having a batch of adjustable 'Dummy' shocks made which allow the accurate height setting of the rear beam.
   
   We normally reside on the 205gti drivers or PSOOC forums but we thought you chaps may be interested.
   
   These dummy shocks will work across all Peugeot and Citroen models which have a torsion bar set up.
   
   We are able to offer these to everyone for £15 inclusive of P&P (Recorded Delivery)
   
   Please let us know whether you'd be interested in one of these, to give us an idea of possible quantities required.
   
   Thanks for looking.

   so these are a tool that you would put in place of the shock to adjust the height of the arm to lower the car?
   
   thats pretty cool
   would be easier than using a jack and trying to lift it like a few mm lol
   
   free bump may be intrested in a few weeks

   Hi,
   For anyone who is unaware of the virtue of our dummy shock it takes a lot of the guess work out when lowering your rear beam, you simply adjust the dummy shock to the desired height you want, fit into position where your existing shock sits and then fit the TB's, repeat for the other side. Voila one level rear end
   
   Anyone who wants a dummy shock please pm me your email address and I will forward payment details.

   with the dummy shock, take it you still have to measure on the hub then just use it to hold the height?
   or can you measure it on the shock then put it on, then put the torsion bars in.
