Yes, I don't know if I want solid though, I'm only using it on the road so I don't know what would be better really. |

I don't have a comparison as I haven't driven a 306 with solid mounts yet but in my opinion a 6 with freshly rebuilt suspension all round including wishbones and new rubber rear beam mounts handles very well on the road. In my case it is lowered -40 mm on the front with H&R progressive springs and Bilstein B8 dampers and about -30mm on the rear with Bilstein B6' and a rebuilt beam with partly quality pattern parts and partly OE stuff. Very happy with it. Others can probably tell more about if it's worth to upgrade to solid mounts on a road car. |

I've just got my Rallye back after a long period off the road. She's basically had a full resto but in that I've changed all the suspension components on the car, but only for standard replacements. Not sure on your budget, but if you can I'd get in touch with Andy - jord294 above, discuss what you want and let him build it for you. I think I remember I spoke to him on the Friday/early Saturday, I was on my way to his to pick it up on the Sunday afternoon! I'm just running standard replacement suspension all round, standard, not solid rear mounts, standard BOGE gas rears shocks and Bilstein standard replacement front shocks with standard coil springs and I must say she handles VERY well indeed in my opinion for a standard set up. Some of the guys on here have some very serious track cars with phenomenal handling abilities, but if like me your just going to use it on the road I really don't think you can really fault the standard set up Rob. ________________________________________ Bianca 306 Rallye.Mondeo Titanium X. |

My problem is I'm in Australia so shipping a beam here is quite costly, the price of the beam is great but shipping  |
