Re: Rear Crossmember/ Brakes/ Suspention

That looks OK. Can't be sure that the brake springs are on the right way round (always do one side at a time so you have something to refer to).

That brake pipe should have clips to secure it to the trailing arm.

Hope you did the trailing arm bushes while it was off!

Yep. Helps stop rubbish accumulating (and eventually rotting out the spring and spring pan).
