I was going to replace some rear end bushes (or something... Luke suggested to do it) but not sure if I need to now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then there would be different figures for what works best in difference scenarios....so one setup for circuit/drift would be different to straight line 1/4 mile stuff....and who says what's best?And I would assume it would be different for each car I.e. XR6T compared to jap cars would be vastly different.Maybe there's a thread somewhere with good recommendations for camber/caster/toe settings and if there is then maybe I should be mentioning it to Bob Jane and the like (whenever I go in for a wheel alignment).So much different crap to consider :/ lol Considering I'm still at stock height ATM, I will just leave the settings to whatever is recommended by Ford...once the SSL's go in, then I will do a bit more research Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thought I'd put it out there to see if anyone had any experiences (good or bad) with carpet cleaning companies in Perth. I'm after someone who will do a pretty good job, as at present some rooms smell and look pretty nasty (thinking pet urine? and oil of some description), but don't want to be bent over on price too much either.

It will improve the centreing and wieght of the steering when cornering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
