Hi all,

Went and saw Nathan at Advantage Suspension yesterday thanks for the recommendation he certainly does know his stuff. He is really helpful explained it all to me. As with most Cobra stories there is a big BUT. Turns out I have 17.5mm of total toe in on my rear end as he said this is not ideal. He would happy with 5mm. So he now has the job of correcting this which means basically he has to hotshot shrink the lower rear control arms.

This explains why when I changed wheels and tyres recently the old rear tyres which apparently had only done 6000 km's were already down to the wear bars and thety were only Kelly Chargers which aren't particularly soft tyres. I guess it is possible that someone had been doing lots of burn outs at some point.

Anyway so the fun continues thanks again.

Andrew
