Philip,
You may be right. Official FTM method required measuring at specific
hard points on the suspension with special tools to measure angles and
such. Maybe Andrew needs to bite the bullet and replace every bit of
rubber in the rear suspension, which would involve completely removing
the rear

Doesn't sound like 'too high' is your problem, so maybe you have some

There are several known points of failure on these guys.

check I'll come and buy it" responses.

I think I recall reading that the data recorder unit is more or less

We can agree on the 126, then I like the 115 and 107. The 124 is OK from the

I was on the OK craigslist today trying to see if he had it listed; cars
sure seem to be selling for less out there compareed to what people are
asking here. Maybe next time I need a car i should buy it in OK.
