    Rear Suspension Limiting Cables MKII

    I bought my MKII so I am not sure if these are part of thr FFR kit or not. So, if they are supposed to be there how are they to be set ?

    if you have rear coil overs not really needed. They were used to keep the donor springs in place if the axle was lifted off the ground by limiting suspension travel.

    Tony,

    What about using tailgate cables?

    I'm sure you can find a pair that are about the length you need.

    David, the car has coil overs, so I guess I don't need them. Thx.

    This wasn't my idea; however, I happened to remember that some fellow used a pair on an old donor build thread.
