Well! After much stuffing about, I've fitted them to my 2004 D130CC!
If anyone is considering buying these, just be aware that the supplied lower brackets that bolt to the axle housing need drilled out to suit the bolts for the radius arm bushes, and filed a little bit to suit the panhard rod bolts.
The bodywork under the front wings doesn't need to be modified.
Now just waiting for my Bilsteins..........

Cheers,
Fraser

Painful, isn't it:mad:

Fitted some a while back and couldn't BELIEVE that they needed modifying to fit:mad: Luckily the customer was understanding as I had the redrill and die grind his new parts:mad::mad:

Won't be buying/ recommending them again. Although, for the price you couldn't make them, but at least if you did, they'd fit:p

Couldn't agree more! What should have been a 1 hour job became 4 (I had to go to a hardware shop to buy a drill bit $62!)
I must say I'm considering a nasty email to the manufacturer, how hard is it to measure a bolt, and drill an appropriate hole?
I'm guessing Bearmach isn't German?

Happy with the final result though.
