Well done, that's some list of work, get a members thread started to record progress.

I knew I had to change the subframe so it seemed the obvious thing to replace all the bushes etc. I used mostley Lemforder bits (ball joints, drop links,bushes, tierods) and genuine VW wheel bearing.

Looking forward to putting the handling to the test on Highland roads!
