Thank you everyone for your input!
I've purchased the replacement rubber bushes as I've noticed on later model Lamborghini that they still utilise a rubber bush at the suspension pivots. I can see that if I press the bushes into the arms from the same side (fore or aft) that I should be able to effect the longitudinal position of the lower and upper arms relative to each other, therefore changing castor. I might leave machining the upper balljoint until after I've tried the new bushes first. The 'ill fitted' urethane bushes were allowing the arms to move forward and backward under braking making the steering much heavier than it should be with a car with the Pantera layout!
So should the front black Telecar shocks be left black? If they are adjustable, what is the procedure for setting them up? I've disassembled the coil over and have found them to have minimal resistance to compression, but maximum resistance to extension.
Thanks again,
Matt
