Give me a break. Nothing but the freshest Tweed Coast Kings and Coopers Green supplied here. I'm use to MarkGU eating all my prawns and drinking my beer! Trouble is I need it done for Easter. Am I correct in my thinking regards the shockies??

bit hard to tell from your pics....does the shock mount about central in height on the spring pack? if the bracket it mounts to can be flipped over and swapped to the other side or even used on the same side but turned to work at time of under slinging, then maybe you'll be ok if it's about central in height. i have limited knowledge in this field though, so take what i say lightly...lol

one thing i was told when i did my old van a few years back was to get new u bolts to do the job. i'm not exactly sure why they say to do this (i can guess though), but they are cheap enough to buy and that's what i did with mine. just got to remember to take it for a short drive and then retension it all up again after that.
