So after new rear suspension and deep tub it is time to improve the handling by upgrade the front suspension. After some investigation I have decided to go with the AFX-spindles. A new sub-frame would be nice but it is out of my budget, just imagine what the shipping to Sweden would cost... The AFX spindles ainīt cheap but there are several positive features with them. First of all, the C5/C6 brakes is a bolt-on upgrade and improved handling, better camber curve and zero bump steer are also nice. The package arrived today so I will put on the gloves and start to replace the old parts. I am eager to test the car but I need new wheels and tires since the old will not fit the C5/C6 brakes.
Have some one here experience with AFX spindles? Will I be happy with this upgrade?
I will post pictures as soon as I have assemble the parts.
