No progress on Vod yesterday because we can't get the Bilstein suspension kit. There are none in the UK, and Bilstein head office doesn't appear to be interested in getting any here (like many German companies I used to deal with, the UK has ceased to exist, #toohard). Even if they were, there would be weeks of them stuck in customs, and the import duty would make the kit >£1000

Instead I spent the evening measuring springs to see if I had anything which would work as an upgrade on mostly stock components, but in the end we decided to put the stock springs and dampers back on with S8 ARBs and see what that does. Longer term I'll keep an eye out for some stock 3.7 sport suspension and fit that at another time.

So, all the stuff I took off can go back on tonight.
