Default Jag suspension
Wow, I'm in the process of cleaning and plating all of the suspension parts of my Mk2 jag rearend. Jeese are these heavy ! I am seriously considering rebuilding these bits with something lighter. I am cautious as I've seen Robnel front suspension bits fail on a new car...back in 2004. I've modified my front suspension to allow a shock absorber to stand more vertical so that required the upper wishbones to be modified which inturn reduced a fair bit of weight. The next step is to get rid of the 4-pot calipers on the front (its cast into the caliper 20 Lb ) and replace them with something much lighter.
Any suggestions ?
