      It's got adjustable coilovers, we will get some adjustable front top mounts and Buy camber adjustable bolts to gain some more static camber, ideally want to get as close to -3 as possible, if not were get grinding.

          -3 is a good bench mark, it depends what you are running but if you have say 20 clicks front and 20 rear, you should try starting 6/8 front 16/18 rear in dry, soften it off in the wet. Ideally you want to get the back as hard as poss so it just bounces round and follows the front. It does take some adjustment from rear wheel driving style

                          Oops - front diff CWP was the part that finally gave up the ghost. A bit of a wounder, as it is a heavily uprated 7" motorsport item (up from the standard weedy 6½ one). Oh well, that is the problem with having 505lb ft of torque :119:. It's done well to last 5 years with the abuse it gets artyman:
