its not for offroading its only to get me places where a standard fiesta wont. really all it is for is show, but if i did need it to take to mtb comps which involved country roads, it would be okay

im getting a 34inch one off ebay in white for the fester. Mounting it to the roof bars
Any idea on lifting a sprung car without changing the springs?
I raised my fester by putting 15in wheels on but it didnt lift it enough.

Cut the shock turret tops with a large angle grinder, remove a couple of inches of said turrets and reweld the tops back on.
PS I accept no responsability for rendering you car worthless or non MOTable
