Got the brackets opened up a little this morning so that the banjo connector runs through!

Hopefully... will asses them better once they arent leaking! Bit yes... even though they are no where near bedded in they are a 100% improvement!

Got the WALK kit on too... but its too dangerous to "test" it out at the moment!

Rear ARB should be going on soon too!

Well... very slightly leaking! The HEL lines came from dave... not had chance to speak to him about them yet!

Got the OEM R32 hoses and pipes so should be an easy swap back... should have used them in the first place really as i cannot see braided hoses making any noticeable difference.

Ta pete!  :happy2:
