Re: [T3] lowering front suspension


    Toby's right, get the Bentley.  The other maunuals are not as complete.
Assuming nothing is seized it could be done in a leisurely weekend.  This is what
I thought in October, but I wasn't back on the road until January!  This was my
first digging under the front end and I discovered a siezed torsion bar/trailing
arm, plus a complete brake replacement and more was in order.
    One OUTER spline is about 2" drop.  This puts you about 2" below the rubber
snubber.  The car will wander a little in the freeway ruts at speed.  But you
won't notice limited travel until you hit a pothole and the snubber gets maxed
out.  This is all about compromise, I'm enjoying it for now.
