The wheel man

Fitted on Saturday and although ive not span the wheels (or tried) i can tell a difference in the way the car 'Feels'  im not getting any vibration and the car has a solid feel now, almost feels as though the car changer gear better, more accurate.....

Could be the placebo effect but for Ã,£35 and 5 mins fitting im well impressed  :happy2:

Got mine fitted on sat, Very impressed tbh. Not getting any vibration at all and the car feels more solid when accelerating and changing gear.

Im thinking of getting the torque arm insert now to match with the dog bone, has anyone else done this and has there been much benefit?

Hmm, I'm a little confused here as I thought that both were the same...
Without traction power is nothing!

it took 2 hours to get it fitted.. luckly it was my mate who did it so he didnt charge me :)
the smaller arms didnt want to go in..
