That's an excellent looking mk2 you got there. Spot on

Do you have some pics up of the front coil overs too?

what has to be done to the diff center to fit the lsd?

nothing to fit it. its a direct fit, just take out the old center and put in the new one. but the diff is old so i am getting them to lapp the gears ( crown and pinion were both worn and not making correct contact) and just give it a general overhaul. make the diff nice and tight again

You wont know yourself when the shock go in, dont start them on too high...maybe the 8th click is plenty! ive got mine in my mk2 set on 7 for daily lunatic driving. I had the car 3ft high over a train track near my place and the shocks took the landing with ease
My GAZ's have been in for 4yrs, no complaint at all.

i think thats how i have mine set on the rear.
fronts about 10 clicks.

only had mine in a few weeks, so still trying to find the sweet spot.
so pleased with them though!

yeh ive been playing around with the rears. great so far.


BUBBA im not sure about price difference, about $800-900 for a set of GAZ (front and rear.) i haven't herd mucj about konis. but i got reccommended the GAZ over konis. up to you really.


update time i got my diff back today. had the LSD center fitted, the gears lapped and the bearings replaced and reset so hopefully it should be nice and tight now. will hopefully get around to putting it in on Saturday.



i will be picking up front springs for the coilovers on the weekend so then i can bang them in.
hak073 here is some pictures of the coilovers. just painted them but dodgy camera phoone photos. will try get some better ones.
