What i did the weekend All 4 anchor strut suspension points done and installed,chamfered and widened the holes for more articulation . mocked up a linkage just to see.    |

The beginning of the strut top mounts  step 2 and 3  Installed and shaped somwhat after which i turned out 2shock caps and pressed them in place. I only had scx10 shocks lying around,not ideal but it lets me see if everything works-it does by the way |
