I'm about to order a set of rear adjustable Avo shocks and the shorter springs, as recommended by Adrian. Is replacing the rear shocks and springs as simple as it looks? i.e. unbolt top and bottom remove old unit and replace with the new unit. Is there anything else that should be replaced when replacing the rear shocks / springs? Has anybody had any experience (good or bad)with Adrian's shorter springs?

Replacing the shocks is really that simple, bolt top and bottom. You could also check the bushes while you are at it and you may as well adjust your rear brake shoes while you have that end of the car in the air.

no experience of Adrians shorter springs, although at a guess you wont be dissapointed

20 minutes tops including getting both wheels on and off!

Make sure you use new nyloc nuts!

I've gone for a set of the Avo's allround, having the car corner-weighted (Adrian Venn) as well so handling should be alot more balanced......can't wait!
