Can someone explain to me where the rack spacers actually fit?

I've seen what they look like but can't think where they actually go.










This is the biggest PITA job of the entire fitting. So much so that I lost it whilst fitting Kiwi's to his car despite basically removing the steering rack altogether!

However, if you don't stress (unlike me), you'll be able to do it in about 1.5 hrs.

Imo you need the toe arms because you will be out of the correct limit for toe out on the rear. Other than that the rest is as above

My advice Jon is, Give Chris at COG a call and explain what you want and what you are looking to do. He will give you free advice over the phone and also explain, what each part does, and why it may or may not be needed.

Remember free advice from a guy in the know, has got to be well worth a call, and should help to put your mind at ease,

I'm glad you've had the balls to get the buddy clubs. I would like to hear your views when they are installed.

From what I have read you should buy the buddyclubs and have them fitted. when you have the money, buy the other bits. Just sooner rather than later.

Who are you getting the buddyclubs from mate?
