And also the front ones are ready to be installed

If I find a gap this week in the evening, I’ll mount the rear shocks
and springs first.
Nothing difficult to mount and adjust…😎

The front is basically the same but I’ve got to disassemble the gearbox mount along with the dogbone mount and press in the Vibra-Technics gearbox bushing in… also the SuperPro wishbones with all new bushings and the Tyrolsport deadest ridgid collars…

That’s going to be a workout 😅 But it must be done😎
And then finally… the brakes🤩

So it won’t be boring the next couple of weeks😉👍🏻

Found a gap today!
Swapped the rear shocks and springs, was a pretty straightforward
and satisfying job😎 torqued all the new nuts & bolts up….
Kept the rear on original height for now. When the front is done, I’ll drop it 3 to 4cm.
It’s weird!?! I’m all excited about it😅 even now when whole my body is in pain😅
I can feel some muscles are still hurting from last Friday….
Reality bites😅
But enough blabbering… here are some pics…

Something is missing 😁



And all mounted but still had to adjust the ride height…

Happy New Year 🥳🍾🎊🎉 and wish you all the best ❤️

Hopefully I can start this weekend to finally do the front suspension!

When that’s all done…. Some nice Z18’s on the front and R32 brakes
and discs at the back.😍

I don’t know if this here is allowed but it may help you guys…
So to our forum editors… if it’s not allowed… delete them.

Some help with the front suspension for all







If it’s allowed, then I’ll also put the rear suspension and Torque specs on.😉👍🏻

Finally got the front suspension installed 
It went fairly smooth…😅 just the little bolt for the powerstering cable was a challenge to put back on!😖 and one of the Tyrollsport dead set bolts on the chassis…
I think I have a new record spending time in the garage! Got started friday afternoon about 3 pm and finished saturday afternoon at about 2pm
It was a satisfying job😅 the “old” suspension disassembly went smoothly, only one bolt from the end links didn’t want to go… so a little persuasion was needed 😎👊🏻
The assembly of the new parts went easy just the two bolts as mentioned early gave me a struggle…
Then Torqued all the nuts and bolts back on which were a number😅
So here are a couple of before and after shots…

And a fairly weight save…😎 comparing the “old” versus the new suspension…
Before : all cast iron, after : all alu parts👍🏻 Only the H&R stabilazer bar is thicker 😅
Now the suspension needs to be settled so I can adjust the ride height.
The to do list is getting to it’s end
Next up… Brakes😎
