Re: I re- lowered the cav (possibly a touch too much) NEW PI
heavier than a 2.0ltr 16v i doubt it, the only heavier one would only be a v6.

Re: I re- lowered the cav (possibly a touch too much) NEW PI

the fronts wouldn't, the backs might as they are really really short, but on my car they stuck on the rubber body side so didnt fall out when being jacked up.
