I got some more done over the weekend, I was having some trouble with the shocks, with the angle I am laying them down at the lower spring seats were hitting the bottom wishbones and limiting suspension droop, so I bought a new set of wishbones and carved away the areas that they were hitting, I also took the opportunity to stiffen up the suspensionlaying the shocks down had softened up the initial movement and put more progression in it, so I rebuilt the shocks wit 70weight in the front, 80 weigh in the rear and stiff springs all round.

Rears

However now the spring seats aren't limiting droop, the springs hit the front diff housing and that limits droop although to a lesser extent, so I will have to take it apart again and modify the front diff housing.

I made up some body mounts, the front ones aren't perfect though i should have made them taller, so I may well remake them.

I also replaced most of the M3 screws under 20mm long with some alloy ones I had laying around from another project, here's how it is looking now.
