bit of an update today.

managed to get some weight on the front end so can get the ride height sorted for the rear, as i think it is 2 low.



the front is 40, but the rear seems to be about 60, so now the front is weighted down, can raise the back up about 20mm. wat u think???????????

anyways, the weight to get the front end down to ride height.







and my favourite pic at the moment



been a pretty busy day really, and it not easy moving an engine crane on gravel either, but managed to get the lump in, so can now sort the bay loom out and get everything where its meant to be.

spoox mounts are great too! even bolting my engine in roughly you can see a massive difference in movement, my gearbox mount was easy to fit, however the upper mount puzzled me for a bit, until i realised the bolt they had sent me wasnt long enough!
now all sorted though

yeah you have to drill the arm that mounts to block larger, also the hole in the buffer with the 2 rubber attachments that sits around arm to get the bolt through, yes mate, got a high-strength one from local hardware store, still not sure if its 100% correct though haha!

and your right, they look much better than oe ones

cheers m8, the front is spot on, but the back is to low, the arch is way down the tire wall, i think just above the tire is better as i have 40 mm dampers.
(had a new axle fitted set this low) will be raising it friday.
