by coincidence I've just had a couple of bottles of 'Hen. Can't get proper cask ales in pubs here but I have discovered that if you pop the cap off a bottle then immediately push it back on with the palm of your hand then leave it in the fridge for a day the carbon dioxide disappears and its almost like the real thing
Just thought I'd throw that in. Cheers !

yes, all 110 rear springs are interchangeable.

90 front/rear and 110 front all interchangeable to. Cheers

thanks for your assistance everyone.job done this morning.now it sits higher at the rear and the ride is a bit harder but i guess they will settle a bit.can't get the bottom nut to tighten on the shocks but i will have another go this afternoon.cheers

take the wheel off that corner and best bet is impact gun or use socket with grips on the shock or spanner and smaller spanner on the very end. Cheers
