lol is big red hard to use..... lower the car to the hight you want it, ram big red under the arch then roll away. Oh and make sure thers no plastic clips tucked up there they can cause dents Sad

it all depends on how big the gap is betwwen tyre and arch as to what size pole will fit into and roll your arch

its not hard BUT if you have rust or any kind of inperfection or rivet holes in the metal of the arch it can (cough cough) cause problems

have you got plastic archs ? are you keeping them? if the answers yes it be fine,

but you will have to glue your arches back on

see you tonight and i will give you the info

thank you so much dread for the offer! ive used the rubber mallet for now but its really bad so im running it higher than i want at the mo, i was suprised to find no rust or nasties under the plastic trim at all. it does have rivet holes though?? im thinking to keep the plastic off now as its still on the front and the backs look so much better without.

is the meet tonight? im working all night which takes the wee wee,
