It went in real good, it fits perfect with the modified shock towers, thats 4" narrow with no inner wing mods, very impressed with it.
No rusted or seized bolts, and the only problem i had was with the NEW track rod ends lol, they just kept turning as soon as i hit the nylon in the lock nuts.
;D ;D

Couple more pics......... Thats por15 behind the shock tower as it was the only time i could get behind it, i shall be doing the rest very soon.       The 145 tyres on my torkers should bring it down a couple more inches, not to mention the dropped spindles when i get them. Time to drop the back a couple of splines. ;D |

Little update, no pics though im afraid!!
Had my mate round tonight working on the wiring for me, sorting the lights, wipers, indicators and fitting a new fuse box, hopefully have the rest finished Saturday.
He will eventually be re-wiring the whole car with a new loom, but for now its just being made safe and MOT friendly.
Once that is all sorted it will be off to autohaus at riverside for another mate to MOT it for me.
Lastly i am just waiting for the other tyres to turn up in the post and a set of chrome wheel bolts to turn up, then the wheels will be going on.
So far its all looking good for bigbang, so fingers crossed!!!! ;D ;D
