Laser rear end

I need to raise the rear end up about an inch do you think replacing the standard laser leaf spring with 2.8 single leaf will do the trick.

Re: Highs and lows

Think thats what I'll do, both outlet ducts on one side of the box are smashed to pieces so using my own casing looks the best bet, as for the plonker that put his boot on it I hope his feet fester and fall off.

HELLO

Hi all you fellow Capri fans, I have just signed up for this forum and thought I'd just say hello. I have just purchased a 2.0 Laser that I sold 8 years ago when it was in immaculate condition, it's in a bit of a sorry state at the moment but not as bad as some I have looked at over the last 6 month...
