The latest Leopard 1 kits are sadly lacking in the suspension department. These parts are not recommended for Takom as they have moulded-on components on the hull side. You will be giving yourself a lot of work.
Meng's detail is basic, to say the least. Their shock absorbers are totally inaccurate, swing arms are very basic, return rollers are the wrong pattern, etc.
The good old old Italeri/Revell kits are better in these respects, but can still be improved on. Hopefully this set is the answer.
Fitting instructions are provided for Italeri/Revell and Meng.
The swing arms are designed to fit any of the Leopard Workshop range of wheels, or Italeri/Revell kits. The axles are too narrow for Meng and Takom wheels.
