What mods can be done to widen the suspension as a better alternative to spacers and wide wheels when fitting wide arches?

I've heard that a Corsa GSi rear beam is an inch longer at both ends, what about an Astra MKII GTE beam?

Any ideas for the the front?

Help is much appreciated :thumb:

Easiest (and safest) way to widen the back is to put spacers in between the beam and the stub axle with longer bolts

for the front you would have lengthen the bottom arms, driveshafts and track-rods, and re-position the the top-mounts further out.

you could use corsa shafts to get them longer
