seriously nice  will look spot on once you get them fitted
and why are they not fitted yet 

[Hurdy]

very nice.. 

I take it the numbers mean they are adjustable??

Yup, adjustable 10 setting damping

Is the damping adjustable for both compression and rebound damping? 

Yes

Yes

not so cool when you'll put them on one setting that works, never change the settings again and the valves seize up.

That is a possibility, but I'll have at least 3 or 4 combinations to use fairly regularly as I'll need at least a road setting, a track setting and a drag strip setting. All quite different. As long as you protect them from the start you shouldn't have issues with them seizing. The fact that I'll alter the settings 20-30 times a year should help avoid seizing.

Yes

So each leg has TWO separate adjusters?

No, they aren't INDEPENDANTLY adjustable for bump and rebound. The one adjuster does both, so adjusting for a harder bump dampening will give you a harder rebound dampening.

Ahhhhhh, I see.  Thanks for clarifying.

Anyway, hurry up and get them fitted!

They are on Sean

Work very well too.

They feel great on the car. Currently running setting 1 on the front and 3 at the rear. Tried 10 at both ends earlier and now need a new lower spine    Imagine riding a pushbike with no suspension or seat at 60mph and you get the picture. Handled bloody brilliantly on that setting though

Not got a pic of the car as it stands yet, but here are a few pics of them in various states of fittage.







Quick pic of the lowerage.....yes the car does need a clean  :embarassed:

Cool!

Just remember the next time you crank them up to ten, make sure your chiropractor is with you too! 

Are you going to upgrade the ARB drop links, because they will now very much be a 'weak link'!

I've had a look at the BSH ones (but not much further for other makes), which look very substantial, but I'm just seeing what the handling is like before I make my next step
