Re: Mk4 Blackberry build
Damn the leaf snapped in half?
Is that a whiteline ARB? and a Darkside flip kit?

Yeah soon as unbolted the shackle on top the leaf just dropped out both sides and it had split right on the locating pin, the pin was still wedged in the axle hole. Chiselled the pin out and carried on.
White line arb and the Darkside flip kit with the b14 setup as a whole kit they do, really good just wish instructions had a bit more info in but generally good.

Dropped down on new kit and the rear arb installed, new shoes on the van pretty happy with the bolas.

First pic out to the local Halfords buying more tools to fix the Audi but looking good on the new wheels and suspension

Re: Mk4 Blackberry build
Gave it a well overdue clean.
Next is to get mirrors fitted and get the side strips back to black until I source and paint some new strips to colour match.
Got a rail on order to get the side rail strip fitted

Re: Mk4 Blackberry build
Thanks Jeff can really notice the difference ride wise and nice to have the option of being able to change quickly with the adjustment
Side rail fitted, couldn’t get a side rail with the correct clips from anywhere after asking round local so spoke to darkside who did a custom order for me and split the rail out of their normal side cover kit.
Really just need to do the side trims colour matched now as starting to annoy me being grey

Re: Mk4 Blackberry build
Resumed the work on sorting the rear out, filled in the previous screw holes in the floor, hit them with some hydrate 80 to convert the rust and then an anti rust primer. Then filled the actual hole with an epoxy.
Started the floor lining using Dodo mat super liner and then taping over the seems with some aluminium tape for a better seal and fjnish
While I had the tape out I went over the arches and taped all the seems up before I cover it with the dodo thermal liner
