Hi Stu,
Yes I did thanks, I just need a spare hour or two to write up what to do!
I'll see if I can have a go at it later this week - I need to find the right photos etc....
Sorry for not replying....I'm not ignoring you.....just haven't had the time to dedicate a whole hour to the solution! :?  :D
I'll be back! 8)
Regards,
Bruce.

Blimey, that sounds like hard work! Maybe it would be easier to visit you as I'm not far away in Ciren - perhaps bring my mechanic mate with me.
I going to order some new damper units from www.explorerprocomp.co.uk - it says the ES3000 is more suited to leaf springs yet Mark choose the ES9000, don't suppose you know why do you and which are best for a Deli?
Cheers - sorry to give you brain ache
Stu

I too have the ES9000's fitted, don't know what the difference is? The ride is much better though than with the original mitsi ones And very reasonably priced. Just wish I had ordered the boots to go with them :?

You're welcome to come down for a visit - in fact MacPingu from Cheltenham is coming down this weekend, Arxtic Fox was over last night, Jonathan Graham last week and GI Gord the week before (Maz before that, Particle before that, Mr H before that .......so on......) so I'm used to having Deli owners around!
I'm not sure how much I'll be able to help out at the moment though because I've currently got 2 of my cars I need to get sorted (as WELL as the Deli!!) and the weekends are the only time I've got to do them!
I'm happy to produce the instructions for now - and if you still want to come down, I'd say it would be better early November....then I can have a proper look and spend some time messing with yours!!

ES9000's are the top range shocks, more sporty/firmer with their setting than the 3000's and actually more suited to the ride of the Deli. I have 9000's on mine (although a MUCH longer version!) and wouldn't change them for anything else.
I'll be putting newer 9000's on soon because the ones I've got are getting on a bit and I fancy newer ones (with nice shiny boots and new shiny paint!!) and the best bit is the longer ones are the same price as the standard lengths! :D :D
Let me know if you fancy coming down in Nov? I'll make sure I have some goodies in for you.....
Regards,
Bruce.

Bruce, you are a star. Let me know when in November, I'll bring a flask  I'll get some ES9000 ordered - I hear they are easy to fit, can't wait to stop the wallow.
