Aren't you going to incorporate a SIPS in case you meet another hostile two wheeled road use?
Good work Dai!

Good panel work fella, I'd give it a new home once you've finished it.
I do remember how attached to it you said you are though.
so I won't be holding my breath waiting for the call.
How’s that car going?
Bet it don't see another winter before you rip its heart out!
Or has it already met the reaper?

That is very satisfying to see a syncro being put right, well done Dai. seeing how many rear coil spring lift plates you have reminds me I need to get the a*** end of mine off the floor.

Dai...What is the total lift on the plates you have there? I want to lift the Doka but not sure to use plates or new Trailmaster Springs.
