Good to see that the brake lines are braided stainless and not rubber.

I'm going to check those nuts and bolts for quality of Galv finish... and the line plate that looks like it's made from ACM?

So.... am wondering how they visually distinguish between springs with supposedly different compression rates for bullbar/winch etc?
@Jean Mercier : Are the front springs yellow on the non-winch vehicles in the dealership ?

And then 10 people were going to complain that you can spec the shock colours on such and such a vehicle and then we go down the rabbit hole

Just in time manufacturing means the correct parts arrive as the applicable vehicle arrives
The fitter doesn't make the choice.
