Wider is not always better. I had a wider rear I the sunny and it pushed. Hard to turn in, then swapped ends. Horrible to drive. Reverted to std width and it was much better.

Thanks man I was planning on evening out the front but it might just be easier to stick with the original track

What do you need a bias valve for?
IRL, they should be set and forget.
If you want to do meke as skids, fit a line locker.

Oh really? I'm guessing someone along the way told me I should use one. Hmmm might leave it out for the mo although it's not much hassle to mount it

Another productive day tidied up the fuel stuff in the boot reattached the brake lines in the cabin center consol almost back in, seat out for when I get the new ones in and then a wee play around with the rear travel etc

Pretty much everything other than splitting the gearbox haha

a bias valve will help you setup the correct ratio so you don't have your back breaks locking up way before the front etc I would of thought you would need to use if if changing front and rear brakes and master cylinder etc

Thanks tlsunny I'm sure that'll be why I had put it in and also for changing the bias for different surfaces ie gravel :) :) :)

Don't think I've ever installed something so fast...

Maybe I'm just avoiding putting the gearbox back in
