started mocking up the rears


checking combined heights


operating


and the reason for doing it a fair bit different than ive seen before on a merc... room for standard shocks

[niscort]

ive gone 127mm for the shs, 2 x 6mm plates... so 139mm for top mount
the ss6 bottoms out at 2.7" / 68mm
6mm bottom plate.

I could have gone a bit shorter as the bottom contol arm doesnt quite touch the subframe. though Ive gone level with the lowest the rear will go.

taken to the front subframe... stolen some ideas here ;p




all fits

i like this, what are the heights for your bag mounts?

[A4crn]

Thanks for the pics...I was thinking of doing something similar, I just thought the top mounts needed a slight "kick" to offset them but it seems not. I bet you can't wait to see it slammed

[niscort]

Lol x 3 I was planning on doing just that...how are you bolting the bottom of the bag to the arm? Also RE 6 bags or 5's?

Ive pinned the bottom plate to the control arm, and make a bridge piece that will bolt through into the bag. SS6's...




finished the top mount, well still need to tap a couple of threads.





sort the rears tomorrow

[A4crn]

I am looking to steal some ideas too haha

Keep up the good work. Looking forward to seeing more.

Dude! well done so far!!!
Great colour combo as well

[mule.]

this is so awesome man! love it.

[niscort]

cheers guys.. hopefully its all worth the effort.

[FluidMotorUnion]

Damn, you're putting crazy amounts of effort into this build. Props. So many props.

I absolutely cannot wait to see what comes next.

[A4crn]

looking good...not too sure about the speakers behind the rear seats, a sub in a wooden box in the trunk will give better bass. The rear bag setup is interesting

[xispaki]

those crome painted in black...

Great job!

[forloveandglory]

This looks ace so far.
(Please go for an all black grille.)
