hit me up too if you want...............
my advice would be go with

1/2" lines.
dual port bags with the drop valves direct to [or close to] the second port.
quality nitrogen filled shocks.
EDC with 12v backup comp.
min 10gallon storage .......... make sure tanks are treated internally against corrosion and fit water drain taps [aly tanks are excelent but big bucks]. Dont rely on a water trap at the comps as you will still get condensation inside the tanks with UK weather.
wire for FBSS [even if switches actually just give FB] or you'll get shit handling.

thanks iain! on the front the shocks are inside the springs so how would that work? 5 tonnes of yank without shocks is a scary proposition lol although maybve that would add to the danger factor eh pete? lol

should have a pic somewhere but I cant find one................

you need to mount it at the back of the a arm [between the arm and the chassis, space will be tight but it is usually do-able.
The Caddi [Derries now] had QR ones with pins so they could come off at a show for better chipping]

iain, i dont suppose you have a part no. for those qr shocks do you? they gotta be pretty small, i was looking at shocks for lowered bugs but doubt theyd take the weight of a yank for very long
