The coilover is just held in by double shear tabs welded to the top of the firewall crossmember.

The pushrod is adjustable and the coilover is adjustable to dial in the suspension. There is also a rear link to adjust toe in/out (red link between the rear mounts of the a-arms).
Sounds like a good setup and exactly why I was interested in it. From the pics it looked as if the links from the coilover were too far forward (front of car) in relation to the axle setup.

Definitely get video from the test runs if you can. I have wanted something like this since I first saw the Atom and since I have that H22 just sitting right now it would be a nice swap in.
