Well I managed to break the first hook off but two cans of Guiness later I had a handful of Pershing units to play with. I now realise that there is no way of getting this job done without removing the arm from the hull, and removing the road wheels, luckily everything screws together apart from the top hull mount. Those Panzer springs are 'very' strong and are a nightmare to compress whilst getting the hook back in. One side is now all done, just starting the other. Hopefully I will have some fingernails left at the end of this!
Thanks for the advice, much appreciated.

You want the shocks on the corners to have stiffer springs, especially as you start adding weight to the front (keeps the nose down in the grass), metal tracks and metal gearboxes.
Make sure you post a guide on how you do the internal springs for the 3rd and 4th suspension arms. I've been puzzling over that one for a while now.
