Shortend drop links

[vRSsunroof]

Alright guys!

On had the furby on the weitecs for some time now and thought it may be about time i sorted the drop links out (im still running Std and the MOT is due in the next couple of months.

People say Mondeo Diesel links are shorter and fit...........

any help please people.

thanks

Yeah, Mk2 or Mk3 - I can't remember. However, I thought the length of the droplinks was only an issue if you lowered the car on standard dampers - aren't the droplink mounts in a different position to where they are on the standard shocks?

my m8s cheepo kit was supplyed with shorter links, and eveyone on here say:

If you are lowering a lot thne need shorter drop links.

If you are only putting a sutible drop on then std ones are fine....... yea im slammed.

I've got weitec coilovers on mine and I'm using standard droplinks with no problems

[vRSsunroof]

Would the ARB end rub on the alloy on full lock if the drop links are wrong?

[ap0gee1978]

I thought it was the the ARB hitting the propshafts that was the problem?

[allytech]

You only need shorter links if the arb is fouling on the drivers side driveshaft, if it's not (and trust me you'd know about it) don't worry

[wilsy7]

would 30mm lowering springs need shortened drop links? and by using just 30mm lowering springs im assuming that would still be on the original dampers?

not too educated on lowering etc lol

[Guest BigJase88]

Springs wont need shorter links

Only some coilovers require short links depends on type, kw dont, vmaxx do

For short links go to europerformance and coilovers and select vmaxx shorter links there
