    Know what ID they are Mieran? I think the kit I'm gonna buy for the fronts comes with some.

    Been discussing alternatives for the rear with MK999, might end up strapping the beam up to limit the droop to achieve the same thing.

    Got some rough prices from when you've been there? I think the problem I'm having now is working out what I want, being indecisive sucks

    Actually I've just remembered that I've got helper springs, you can have them as well

    No idea on ID but worth a try?

    So whats to stop fixing the spring and the cup??

    As for strapping the beam, sounds like a good idea. Pics if you go ahead with it. Might carry out the same mod.

    They're over there with their new toys. Someone brought them in. No idea who bought them though.....

    Cool if you want them out the way I'll happily take them off you for some trial fitting/mocking up! Thanks very much. I'm meeting you to collect some polycarbs aren't I?

    Dean good price, might be worth giving them a shout then!

    Pete I guess nothing if you find a suitable way to attach them. I take way too many pics so there'll be some don't worry
