Finally got it all together, springs everywhere, slip joint to cylinder, pin with R-clip to chassis and more springs for tailpipe to chamber over the nozzle. Got the 20mm one fitted at the moment. I've only been for a quick ride to the end of the road and back and already I can feel that it has more grunt but in a much reduced spread. Without trying, and unexpectedly, it picked the front up after I turned around to come back down the road. For the muffler bracket I was going to go the ESE way and use a piece of structural steel, maybe a small chunk of UB. In the end though I went with .8mm sheet pieces with a 3mm gap and the edges welded. It's turned out amazingly strong and once bolted to the small piece of 3mm panel I've brazed to the rear subframe you can't move it. Unfortunately i think it's going to be a scraper as the rear cone is back beside the suspension link meaning the pipe is out the side a little bit.
