Re: slammed morris minor, give me your thoughts
i've experienced suspension problems with my trunnions bashing into the inside of my wheel arch and bending the arch up. this is what i think will be the major problem if i want to go lower on the standard suspension, however the dampers would make it firmer with less travel, true.

Re: slammed morris minor, give me your thoughts
Thats why i mentioned the deep dish steels that are available from E.S.M they sit flush with the body and give it a subtle custom look. Plastic_orange, do you have a build thread because that morris looks amazing.....

Re: slammed morris minor, give me your thoughts
how are you intending to lower it on the standard trunnions and leafs? i was looking at adjusting the splines on my morris and i already have a lowering kit on the back but its still not low at all! apparently the adjusting of the splines on the front suspension ruins the handling also?
