Nice toys .

My mum made a comment about boys and their toys as i was sat in the hallway unwrapping the parcel this evening.
She came out from the living room ten minutes later and i was putting the pedal box together and she said 'i'm glad we got you all that lego and meccano when you were younger'

Be prepared to do A LOT of alterations to your strut tops to stand any chance of adjustment on those top mounts fella! They look like Rally Design Spherical Bearing Eccentric mounts like mine.

Had to have them machined down by 7mm in diameter just to get 2 holes to line up! If you want more adjustment the strut top will need modding. You'll also need to have the collars drilled out to fit on the avo pistons. They will sit on the 2nd step on the piston (going bottom up) which personally, I'm not 100% happy with on mine.

Simps.
