I used the smaller nut covers but used heat shrink to hold it on. Mine are still on.
I used heat shrink on the track rods too.
File the sharp edges on the locking nuts on the top ball joint. Dont use tape, they dont like that.

BTW SWTOC met at Castle Combe yesterday, good day. In 2 weeks Castle Combe meet and then BBQ after, why not come along.
