Its coming along nicely Hef. Interesting to see a slightly different way of doing this with the dampers and springs separate. Is that how the setup was on the R36?

I’ve not seen a rear spring set up like that before Hef (though I’m no expert) you learn something everyday!

Looking really good mate, well done
