Displacers

Post by Dr S »

I have a big box of displacers of varying decreptitude.

Am I right in believing that they are the same front to rear?

Any tips on trimming a hydro car? My mk2 has always had a slight nose down attitude. I'm planning to replace the stock knuckles with the spacered version to find half an inch or so. Is it possible to get uprated helper springs? Post build she'll be running adjustable camber and caster all round, ST bumps and front shocks.

Right I think I've found which are front and which are rear. It seems to be a function of what's rusted into the end.

Any tips on extracting the knuckles and pins very much welcomed!
