    No bearings with the kit, had to remove them from old shocks that are now in the tip lol

    I take it your using the factory top mounts then Mav? Because 90% of peeps fitting coilovers fit eccentric on even concentric top mounts and the uniball inside them acts as a shock bearing would. This is probably why the kit doesn't supply them.

    Yup factor top mounts and all fitted up with shock bearings, though many people have an inch gap between the top strut mount and the chassis because they fit them wrong, mine on other hand fits flush like the standard suspension.

    I just want to say that it was cool to sit down and chat with you guys instead of the usual quick "hello" at shows.

    Might come to another one if by some divine miracle the Vectra stops drinking like a fish. lmao

    Next one will more than likely be Billing, unless we can squash one in

    Maybe bring it forward a week so it's not so close too Billing, either that or like Lee says leave the June meet altogether. Will have a look at dates...
