are you going to paint them shocks as they look like they will rust or pickle quite easily?
although the amount of time you spend on the car you would sort it before it happens.
there were just somescrapones i found to modify for the job im hopeing within 12months it will be in a sorry state stripped scraped and move on to the next homemade idea ,,:lol: herncewhy i dont want to worry about bodywork and bits of rusty shokers :)
 
hopefully it wont come to that :cry:
they all do,,, hernce (its homemade , i basicly try do a vechical each year h as there only the bug and this ive not cut up yet as i know theres room for more tuning b4 she blows lol
as i will get 20psi out of this and make sure i get a dam video this time incase it blows again lol
