Default Right, decided....

Standard rims are staying, so gonna go with the 2WD discs and 4x4 calipers

1/ Now, suspension.... I have Spax top adjustable shocks (std springs) on the rear, but seems I only have std shocks and springs on the front

2/ Now I like the ride height - not much gap in the arches and with my drive any lower would be a bit of a pain... BUT! I need stiffer - too much bounce and not as tight handling wise as I want..... So, might be easiest to get a pair of matching front top adjsutables (am I right in thinking that the "adjsutable" bit is damping stiffness - ie: 1/10 = soft and 10/10 = very hard/stiff?) and stay with std springs - or can you get higher poundage springs but std height?

3/ Next tyres...... Whats a good grippy tyre? Had Uniroyal Rainsports on the 3i and liked em cos they were good in the wet - but whats everyone else use???

4/ Bushes.... To try and tighten it up more (plus I think mine are fubar ) - wasn't happy with the fit of my Deflex ones on the 3i, but is it worth paying the extra for the Power/Superflex items?

Help/opinions please
