I've never been one to do something just because someone tells me to, so...
I'm about to embark on replacing the rear coffin arms, diagonal arms and toe control arms on my C4S. I've been reading my Bentley manual and notice that the instructions make a big point of stressing that when you come to tighten up your new coffin arms it is important to put weight back on the wheels or to use a jack to raise the wheel carrier back towards its normal position. But they don't give any reason for this. And it only says this for the coffin arms not for the diagonal arms or toe control arms.
Anyone got any idea why this might be required for the coffin arms in particular?
