my gmax 55 mil springs have just turned up .and theres a inportant notice that comes with them saying hexagonal shaped bar may hit the low pressure steering pipe. this occurs when the suspension is in compression and has been lowered this problem can eventually result in loss of power steering fluid. has anyone come across this before???
also when i get it lowered the guy that is doing it is takeing the torsion bar one notich will this look ok with the 55mil springs
many thanks

Search mate asap!

Notches are the wrong way to do the torsion bar!

As for the rubber you will need your pas pipe bent out the way of the steering arm!

i orderd 35mil gmax today, was going to get 55 but the said they would mess the powerstearing up if not done proply, and said its a bit much for standard shocks and dampers, so i opted for the sensible option till i have enough money for a full suspesion kit.

was going to do the same but was told 35 mil wouldnt alter the look by much yes its still 35 mil but i mean the look of it mate
