How to get lifted

Post by poshbuggers »

I've seen a few ways of getting a Syncro ^UP^

What is the most cost effective?

Mine's a 14" and the suspension is fine, just not high enough!

Are the inserts I have seen worth looking at/getting made/buying or am I into a new spring and shock setup to effect any improvement.

I REALLY don't want to have to go down to training wheels, like the original steels.

I have the td plates in the rear of mine.. mae a good difference, but need longer shoxks to make the most of then the cv joints will become an issue..
Fronts.. I have a set of spacers from Bussman.. havent fitted yet and again to get the benefit witout it topping out all the time.. longer shocks..

Doing some experiments at the mo.. couple of bits being made to assist in the travel direction..

I have the Buschmiede kit - long springs in the front and spacers in the rear. I have uprated 16" shocks up front and long shocks from Syncro Services in the rear. Still a bit bouncy but I havent driven it much yet.
