Did you guys re index your torsion bars yourself ? or have you deleted them and used a full rear coilover ?

I had the beam off mine anyway to replace the fuel lines, so I knocked mine back by one inner spline per side which worked out perfectly. They do need reindexing to do the job properly IMO.

Mine was already reindexed when I got it. Seemed a shame to lift it back up!!

Really appreciate all of the input guys, have settled on psx kit for now... May look at first full coilovers later.. These look a good compromise with good range of on car adjustability....
