Whey hey! good man.
You just reminded me actually....does anyone have a picture of the rear suspension top mounts i could have a look at??? Im still not 100% happy with mine and am going to take em off and re-do em tomorrow. Im pretty sure i put it back together the same as i took it off - but not totally. Would appreciate it if someone could put one up.Ta

Ok, had the rears off again today (for about the 3rd f*** time
) Pretty much just turned the washers on the top mounts the opposite way round so it holds the bush in firmer. I had it facing upwards originally as im sure thats how i took it off. Anyway, now its facing down into the bush and it all feels far more solid. The nasty creaking has gone for the time being, fingers crossed it will stay that way.

Daaaam, still not happy with my rear suspension. Its making far too much noise for my liking. Could anyone throw up a 'dummies guide' to fitting rear suspension for me ??? Dunno what im doing wrong !

Maybe if you go to a tyre place they can just stick it on a ramp and have a look? Its pretty straight forward doing the rears and if you did the fronts ok, wouldn't be hard to do.

Is there anyway to change the camber on the rears ??

You must of put the top mounts and spacers on the wrong way or something? Is Jim not local, I'm sure he wouldn't mind taking a quick look?
People have vertically slotted the rear subframe where the trailing arms bolt in and used eccentric bolts to sort the camber. Personally I wouldn't bother.

Me neither. I love a bit of negative camber on the rear.

Jim's not far away but he's not available that often with his hectic lifestyle. Here's a pic of how their put together, i did them the same as the ones i took off other than the spacer/washer that came with the kit. I had to use this as the tops of the struts were scraping the roof of the boot.
