Your spring set-up is not legal.
The 2 springs must attach to separate brackets.
I would suggest moving one to the old air cleaner bolt hole maybe?

Not legal for US ARMA does not have the same wording as US so with that knowledge you can leave or change as needed for whom ever your building for.

Installed the master cylinder and the brake pedel today ....wow its getting closer to testing this bad boy out even know it turn from a build for the 2011to 2012 ...lots of work to make everthing work good and work right and I'm learning to powdercoat real well from brackets to bolts and everthing else...... has taken me almost a year but I guess I could of bought everything instead of making it all myself . But that would be no fun
