hey team, I’ve got a Curley one someone maybe able to help with.
1st question I’m midway through lowering my VF redline v8 and I don’t know the correct orientation of strut cap to strut base. There is a w notched into the top hat. I’ve read this either faces the same way that the hub bolts into or directly opposite ie facing engine bay. I’ve also used some new whiteline strut top bushings and bearings and now the cars sitting on the ground there’s about 3mm gap
Between the cap that mounts in the engine bay and strut tower, I understand these are meant to move around a bit with steering. How much is too much gap. I’ve done everything by the book.
