as i've started the new coilover conversion i thought i'd post up a few pics.
After a quick look i worked out that MK3 polo struts are the same as B2 ones, the only thing that changes is the strut insert tubes are shorter (bonus) and the tracking arm is about an inch shorter (not so much).
so i starter cutting them up, i am making new arms and i have moved 30mm of the tube to the bottom as to get a lil more drop and not have to shorten the inserts. then i will weld on the coilover thread and bobs your uncle.
