One more idea then im done
IF the swaybar is at its longest point past it as it sits now, you could fit blocks between the chassis mounts pulling the arms forward. If its not at its longest point obviously just going to make it worse. Or pull the swaybar forwards. Adjustable swaybar mounts would be good

haha thought id post this, found this funny. i needed something to help get the new bearing cups into the back side of the hubs...50mm tow ball works perfect. 
 

Just an idea, would it be possible to fit a wedge shaped spacer between the strut and body? And I say just an idea never herd of it done before. If you can fab it yourself it would be cheep to do, just time consuming.

Today i had a good look at the Escort to try work out why the diff wasnt straight. After measuring off a number of relevant spots on the car side to side, it turns out the driver's side front leaf spring eye was 10mm further back on the car. Which is welded to the chassis.
I asked around on fb for advice, and pretty much every response i got was basically, never use a tape measure on and Escort, because they were all put together badly haha.
 
Anyway, Cal and I decided to unbolt the diff, and try moving it anyway, no good. So we come up with another idea, when we installed the 1" blocks, which has appeared to work. It has corrected the rear wheels, and brought the back ride height down perfect.
 
It just scrubs the rear left arch on big bumps, and turning left turns too fast, from the body rolling sideways onto the tyre.
 

I wouldn't be happy either. IMO its a shit thing to do.

Hmmmmmm. I supplied parts in good faith to be used as spares to help out. To find out they are being sold to make money, in the same week they are taken away for free.........Just decided that the rest of my stuff is going to the dump!! Was trying to help out but guess that's not every ones cup of tea.
 
 
PS I'M OUT

Didn't waste anytime to make a quick buck Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/322371458725

it was so bad it was obvious. It was in a te, coil sprung rear end so it was able to twist a lot. On one side the tire was touching the wheel arch behind the rear seat. The other side was towards the boot and almost touching the wheel arch

Rick this is what you want, I think they are called acorn wheel nuts, yes same thread as commo.

Apologies for the lack of updates in here. I'm flat out at work and keeping the business page running so I don't get as much time as I'd like. Rainy crappy day here today so time for an update.
 

 
As you can see if found a spot to mount the coils.

Well last year in December i got a F100 without motor or box for free so that became my newest project. It has a 3.50:1 lsd 9in in it and i am building up a 250xflow with a blow thru carby and a turbo which will be backed up with a T5. Well here are some pics of the work done so far.

As it sits the bottom end of the motor is nearly ready to go in with the gearbox. Cab has been stripped and is ready for paint doors and guards are stripped, rust free and in primer and tray is 95%repaired just need to weld it out. Have also done a diff flip and painted the enginebay and chassis
 

202 meth custom manifold su's

I've always just give cast metal a good wacking with a hammer. Could be time to apply heat.

What shits me about it is that what we drove is/was different to everywhere else in  the world. We had our own identity. You knew you were in Oz.
 
What's the point of travel if everywhere is the same...McDickheads on every corner and Kia's & Hyundia's in all the parks. 

I tried to get this one the right sizes. From best guess, this could possibly work as they two are very close width-wise.

Got some more stuff coming later this week. Getting a little bit pumped.

Happy crossflow freak in Far North Queensland tonight.
 

 

 
Well worth the wait. Awesomely engineered and finished. Bloody light as well. Missing a few pieces to make the linkage system work but the supplier is on it and sending the missing bits. I've worked out my issues with him and he has a good understanding of my expectations now.

I don't fucking know women
