I don't mind if the suspension arms are moveable, but if that means that the connected shock absorbers don't telescope to fit, then to heck with it. There's no way I want a model with bits hanging off in space that should be joined on the real vehicle. Suspensions where the bogeys articulate or the suspension arms can be fixed in different positions are just fine, thanks, but I really don't want things to be moveable after I have established just where I want them. Breakage and losses in accuracy are sure to follow.
