Yes mate no problem at all if the meet is in the afternoon and you come up in the morning it will be sorted before we go to the meet.:D

If you ask the seller im sure they would send the springs to me instead of your address

Dont look to bad that kit

The only thing that can happen is what happened to Robs car so checking the spring pads on the rear would be a good idea

Only way to replace them is buy changing the arms and the chances if you ask me are slim but it can happen best thing to do is take the rear wheel off and lift the rubber pad up on the arm and see if the rust is bad under there

Nah I want a classic look, not a lowered look so -40mm will be perfect. :D Plus this way I don't have to buy shortened shocks.

I know a very nice man who is not too far away from town that can supply a pair of mint condition rear trailing arms if needed :)

Oh, if you need a taker for that 3rd box of stella I can supervise/talk bollocks/drink coffee/keep you company throughout the repair procedure winkeye

It's funny actually Dan, I had already suggested your rear arms as an option to town via PM. :D

It is after all going to be your old 316 front legs that are going on. :D

I'll see what I can do about the stella :P But it would be good too meet you eitherway.
