Got round to gettin spacers done,they've been lyin in the back of Surf for over 2 weeks so i couldn't take it any longer. (Trev) Managed to get spacers in without un-doing shock. Just un wound torsion bars so top wish bone could be levered up. Took the ball joint off (easy to get old bolts out for the longer ones) by undoing split pin and the castle bolty thing. Got spacer in after the usual grinding and once fitted just leavered up wish bone enogh to get the bj rod back through.
Managed to destroy thread on one of the torsion bolts though
It was stiff as hell then with one final turn de threaded and returned to top of nut position!!!!!!
Got some high tensile threaded rod and some locking nuts......sorted!!!
Oh and fitted extended brake lines on front as well.
Got 17" from top of rim to bottom of arch all round......
Anyway some before and after pics..................

You feelin ok? You will notice a big difference on front end at the clog itll be softer and weight will be more consistant sio traction should be improved aswell instead of bouncing or lifting articulation will have improved too
