Just give it some positive castor, put them both in the same position and get it to a wheel alignment place. They can tell you what castor, camber, toe it's running and should be able to adjust it for you.Quote:

I never had this problem with my Avo's & top mounts mate. The weight of the car on the ground shou;d be ok to tighten/loosen.
With the eccentrics you should have...
spring - spring cup - lower collar - mount - upper collar - 2 avo nuts.
certain thats how I have mine.
gary did his to day with no problem what so ever did olly supply the top mount nuts.collars if so i belive that spax have different pitvh thread to avo lead etc as i had to tell them i had spax as they were different collars/nuts needed
Thats the plan as in my diagram above.....Quote:

My problem being the upper collar wont screw down the piston thread itself... So im going have to drill it out and just use it as a spacer, and then use the 2 avo nuts as normal..
Corsakid-Yes mate, there the ones off Olly's Spax setup, so that may explain why they dont screw on right.
i am almost certain spax have different pitch thread etc to leada avo's ie yours so would explain why they lock up after one turn
That would explain it. So drilling them out and then just sliding it down the threads is my only option.
It should be fine :)
or just pay a few quid for the correct collars lol
Nah, wheres me drill :D lol
