I have a fully restored wolseley hornet mk3. I've put some white coopers s wheels and yoko ao32 on it as i am looking for a retro look.

I would like help on how to lower it I know I may need to put dampers on the front but other than that I'm not sure

Any ideas would be helpfull
Thanks jack

much the same as a dry suspension mini you need the distance between the spring and knuckle shorter

let out some fluid..........LOL................

[Jack rabbit]

Lol I thought about letting fluid out I think that only lets the back down not sure I will look into it a bit more at the weekend

Cheers guys

The valves are sided left and right.

Mine sits ok, this was done to the old elf workshop manual, can't remember the figures but I can dig them out.

Do not let out fluid. As has been said, it can only be done properly by machining the struts. You will also need shorter pitch control springs at the back.

Of cause you have to use a suspension pump.....or you will waste the fluid......LOL.....I lowered my old 1969 many years ago and had no problems ......
