When the bags are setup, that will dictate tray height, thought about folding up some pretty tubs, but will make it a real pain to set up, so not sure yetQuote:

A little more, worked yesterday, 3hr job, turned into a breakdown aswell, nice to see a 6.6KV motor liquid starter steaming:eek: called in again this morning to, never ends, also in again tomorrow, so much for RDO's!
Mounted controller and valve block, I know, but they assure me its fully water/muck proof

What part no are the bags and pistons? May be the photoes, but the pistons you have appear slightly longer than mine. They may not compress up as far, but will make up for it on the down stroke.:) The longer piston should make them a little more progressive as well.Quote:

Plates for the front should be cut tomorrow, hopefully fit the front bags tomorrow night, you never said if you wanted a set for yourself, seeing as they are getting done, I've got three sets anyhow
Going to be very interesting how yours, Bens and mine turn out in the long run. I have the longer bags and have found when I have big weights on I have to lower it to keep things nice and stable at high speed. Still better than coils though.Quote:

Not to late, that's why I got 3 sets, one for me, you and a spare, always with the spares when I buy stuff:DQuote:
