Just a few random shots. Only the front suspension to come out but I need to drill
the locating holes for the steering shaft grub screws before I remove it.

Is on my list to look into, shoot me a suggestion if you have one for incorporating one into the front end.

I just looked at the link Blacky I would assume with the front mounted rack the kit would be the best way to install a sway bar.

I just had a look at the CRS independent front end and they say you must use a HR Sway Bar, the photo looks like they have 2 posts that the sway bar would fit onto.
