Out of disaster comes ...more bloody work

[Mikethepanel]

Heavy duty four link bars assembled and ready to fit



And heres the axle seated



But run into a problem! Rear springs are too close to the turret, cutting and welding the bracket on the axle is required

Getting there now Mike 👍

[Mikethepanel]

Well thats the clearance sorted

[Mikethepanel]

Crap pictures but exhaust is now made and fitted

[Mikethepanel]

Today was the turn of the pedal box for a make over





And as you can see it was about due a refurb.
Also a little scary find



This is the front master cylinder

And complete

Unfortunately using these bushes



The pedals are waayyyyyyy too tight. Can anyone recommend a good set of bushes?
