Second coat of paint turned out not too bad. These corner spheres are IFHS spheres, the regulator is a Citroen one, but IFHS coding is easy to understand, so I marked them accordingly. 2* XM30RH, 1* XM50AR

The fuel tank support straps and rear spheres went back on. The tank straps were a bit challenging as the tank had sagged due to only being bolted at the sides, for several weeks. I had to prop the tank up to be able to install the strap bolts.

I cleaned and greased the end of the suspension cylinder, to ensure the sphere fitted snugly and stop any corrosion. I recently was informed of a Cx rear cylinder suffering sudden and rapid fluid loss due to the end of the cylinder having corroded. Xm rear cylinders are mounted in a more shielded position, but still near the back wheels.

Followed by the exhaust.
