Hi Andy, That sounds a very interesting trip. Stravanger must be a bit of a change to the topics!   Are you going to do a blog or just keep us up to date with photos, etc?  Looking forward to hearing what you think of the suspension, from what Simon has said yours is 'in-build' so it shouldn't be too long now. When do you hope to pick your car up? Brian

And after a small delay.... All ready for powder coating there is about 50 hours of cutting,jigging,fabrication and welding time in these parts  This IS yours Andy! A pair of modified Morgan factory stub axles showing the reinforcement we add....  and some close ups of the welding involved...

Just think: if Morgan updates its suspension system to something like this, those of us wo have recently purchased a car will proudly own one of "the last of the real Morgans". Funny, I seem to have heard this somewhere before

Sorry I missed this post. That looks a great job. I know the finished product is now at RPM and due to be fitted next week. Really looking forward to the finished job.
Thanks again for the photos.

Rising rate springs should be available via your dealer very soon - hopefully in April.

Cheers, I have a set on order. The latest news I have is that they are undergoing approval testing at Morgan. I get the feeling that they don't want to release them until Morgan give them the ok as an approved after-market option.
