    Worked a treat.

    The bushes are the same as the rear springs on mine are so have some emergency spares!

    Worked a treat.
    Great to hear

    Got the last bits and finished it completely.

    Works as it should, added a little strengthening where others suggested at last night's club meeting. New eyes gave good advice.

    Very happy.

    Now the pod is empty, LOL

    There is a bit of a plate on the bolt "head" not seen in the photo. Its silver and is just visible.

    If it was to fall out the angle iron bracket fixing bolts stop it from falling out.

    Cheers for looking out for me LOL
