GTV6 Lowering

==================
call alfa ricambi - they have a detailed description in their older catalog; i'd
imagine they still have this info awailable.  1.800.225.alfa.  also, doing this
effects the camber & toe - be sure to adjust accordingly.  ewe may either have
to get tom zat's eccentric upper control arm bushings, or grind some of the
lower control arm off where it seats to the frame, to avoid to much negative
camber.  this *is* a worthwhile handling improvement, imho, but ewe may find
yourself wanting to go to a stiffer suspension set-up as well, especially due to
the reduced ground clearance, which isn't great to begin with...

good luck,

doug
