No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationNo eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationPics to follow, sorry for the delay as my camera has died.
eBay item number:
is for a landrover axle breather set but if you look at thier shop they do Suzuki as well!
I got the tyres from my local tyre company Wheeldons in Leek Staffordshire, £54 + vat Inc fitting and balancing.
Having now done 60 miles with the spacers on the hubs I have to say it drives far nicer than it did, it feels better when in the ruts as well. I can turn the wheel and climb straight out as I present lugs to the rut rather than side wall!

Nice.
Axel Breathers on the cards for ours this summer too.
Wheel spacers and studs ready to be fitted.. Wheel spacers purchased from the same guy that Dave Vits 4 Vits used to supply (not the Ebach ones)
a nice writeup please on the breathers kit.
Castor correction and one of those nice looking dampers also on the cards.

Brett,
Not really supposed to help with "Death Wobble", certainly doesn't on mine and I created the damper! Helps with "tram lining" - where you get into a groove on the road and the car tries to follow it (inside lane of Motorway where the lorries create "ruts"). Also helps with staying in one lane instead of two! (the wandering around road at speed). It firms up the steering and makes it more positive.
