[T3] Front end lowering and other ramblings


Ramblings from 6 inches below VW level.  First, before anything else, I
must aplaud anyone who wants to lower their car.(I think I'm slipping
comletely into chromie land)  If done correctly on a T3 it is completely
enjoyable.  Here are a couple tips.  Use BOGE shocks on the fronts; Kick
Your Butts are to stiff!!!!!  Second, if a square, KYBs are okay on the
rear, but Boge again are easier on the butt. Third, tire size makes a
difference.  I currently am stuck w/ a pair of 135s on  the front so I
feel alittle more of the road than 165s, but this low means 135s.  Other
than the small tires, the car is not at all jaring and RR tracks are not
a problem(usually don't even slow down for them).  Finally,  after
lowering, a 4 wheel alignment is a must!
I am taking my digital camera to see Toby and hope to have some bug
riddled pics on my sight

by tomorrow.(we are meeting at dusk)  The sight also has a link to some
pics from the Volksfest 98.
One last thing...I love my carbs.  I'm not trying to start a flame:@),
I'm just stating that I never have to dink around w/ them.
