Hi Adam,

I was done it in my 1975 181 but with the late 951 aluminium trailing arms.It is a straightforward operation and you can have the adjustable spring plates fully operational as the 181s chassis is different there.At the front you need to install some beetle spindles as the 181 are raised.

Rgds,
Jim
