Got some more time spent on this project!
I ignored my first idea of having short shocks in the rear as the long shocks gets a better mounting position after all. As in the front, the rear shocks are mounted in the hubs and I found out that they can be mounted in the gearbox if they are fitted behind the wishbones. As you may suspect the rear hubs are placed backwards.
Rushed it a bit and just had to try the wheels on even if the car lacks rear turnbuckles and dog bones all around
Next on the list is to craft a matching top deck.
