New Rear Springs and Brake Pipes

I've now fit the new parabolics from GB Springs on the rear along with my tidied up standard dampers. GB advise standard dampers should be appropriate for their parabolics for general road use and light off-road, so I am going to see how they fare once I'm on the road - especially as I already had them and they are not leaking.

I can see she is sitting higher than she was, and standard check straps are too short even with some weight in the back. I will have to wait until she's out the garage and had chance to settle before torquing up and measuring up to make some check straps.

I've also flared and fit six new brake pipes and three new flexi-hoses which replaces the whole brake line in its entirety. Next job is a complete brake/clutch fluid replacement and bleeding operations. I have bought a one-man manual bleeder on recommendation. Time will tell if I am going to need a pressure bleeder of some kind.
