Hey all, want to make it easier then the dodgy as hell 5mm spacers and VT studs (5mm longer), so I can fit a wider range of rims, namely my 18" Medusas off the VX wagon, or better as the standard VPSS rims will stay as a "fall back" rim if I have rim diameter issues on the street.
If there is no set thread on this issue, whos done it?(surely someone has by now?) and what needs changing? A arms alone? A arms and CV shafts, or the whole cradle/assy??
Any input greatly appreciated... :)
