I never managed it at the time. Only last month I realised a mistake I was making with the rear. The cars been off the road for maybe 5 years but I'd just thought of something; I needed to wind up the rear on it springs so as to compress the hard gas pressured rear shocks so they could go out wards over hollows. That wasn't happening, only inwards. Seems obvious now. Don't know why I didn't think of it then.
