Just put the fronts on, going to switch the rears over when my dad gets back! Easy peasy up to yet. Got a few photos, but to be honest there really isn't anything to say, it's a bolt and the bits at the top, then wiggle it out.

All done! Just need to wind the back end up about 5mm and it's all good. Absolutely loving it! The grip is endless now, really compliments the TRD roll bars. Insanely easy job too, the hardest part was getting those sodding clips out of the boot lining.

I should have told you to use a claw hammer - makes the clips pop out no problem - sorry.:p
