Looking good Yves, did you find the exhaust extensions in the box, they were separately wrapped?

Are these extensions for in the red tubes?

Hello,

Working on the suspension arms and torsionbars.
I mill down the 8mm M4 grubs so i can put the fixt torsionbars from the outside into the belly
of the jagd ( also easy take out for maintenance ) so i dont need to unscrew the grubs to take out the suspensionbars.
I did this modification on all my tanks.
