Default S2 Rear Shock Mounting

Hi,

Hoping someone can help on how to mount the rear wishbones/shocks on the Short Wheelbase S2.

I've put most of the kit together, I have a question on the rear shocks, if I mount them behind the rear shock tower they have to be at quite an angle forwards to be mounted onto the holes on the wishbones? But they also won't go on the front of the shock tower, as then they'd be at an angle rearwards. I used the spacers as suggested in the letter included with the kit to push the wishbone to the rear, and the wishbones are angled forwards (I guess this must be correct as the shock mounting holes are on the back). from where the wishbone is grooved to miss the diff outdrives it looks like I should move the wishbone forward, but then I would definitely have to put the shocks on the front of the tower?

Any chance someone could let me know the best way of mounting everything based on how they've done it? Or even post some pics?

Dave
