Ready to go back in tomorrow and then the rear axle to be set about

 

[Mr K]

Had a slight issue with the rear crown wheel where it has a chamfer on it that's not big enough to fit and get the ring gear to seat correctly to the diff center.

Needs to be machined, but way too hard so going to machine diff centre.

This will not effect strength or reliability as not on a stress part.

Carried on with rear suspension

A close up shot of the raised suspension turrets to hold the long shocks, and the external reservoir which are adjustable :naughty

 

[Mr K]

Another angle. Sexy.

They are not as extreme as yours lol

I went for a more pliable option. Will get pics up later

Yeah, my tyres sound like I'm driving a flight of Lancaster bombers through a flight of Stuka's in a really long echoey tunnel!
