Front strut assembly

Finally, all the powder coated and cad-plated bits for the front struts arrived, again, a superb job from Jens!

after:





So I layed out everything for the re-assembly:






In order to maintain a good cooling of the shocks, I filled them with 100 ml motorcycle fork oil:


It is almost filled to the brim




(You can tell by the price tag in Deutschmarks, it must be at least 14 years old - but still good enough for the job :-)
Maybe fork oil is like wine - it gets better with the years :-)

Tomorrow I need to visit somebody with a spring compressor for final assembly!
