yeah it seems to have stopped happening last few days... so no idea what that's about.
Hey Hammertone, you are talking of building the rear bar with a tyre holder, would you be interested in building two at the same time and selling one ? I'd be interested if you are.

Any reason you did not go with #C29-030 in the front?

Deni, i'd be happy to make up another one. Unfortunately the project has been on hold for a while as I've been juggling a few other things. It has been on my mind a bit lately though and i'm keen to get started on it again. I'll keep you updated and if it looks as though I can get something sorted in a reasonable timeframe i'm sure I can knock one up for you. Its certainly good motivation to get cracking again.
Polyarkos - I had read a build thread from a guy who claimed a lot of lift from -024. I ended up getting exactly 3" without barwork which is what I was after. I considered -030, but it's made for diesel with 2" lift and barwork, and I thought at the time (and am sure of it now) that it would've thrown me above 3" which would bring on geometry problems.
I plan on having front and rear bars which will drop everything down, but they're a way off (especially the front) and when I get them i'll measure the suspension sag they cause and cut my now unused spacers to that height to get me back to 3". If this fails I can just get the -030 springs then, but I think the spacers will be fine.
