Re: July 6th-7th Wiltshire by-way session
I've got a lot to do, my axles have started to fall apart got at least one wheel bearing and a diff to sort but might as well just get my full float rear axle fitted with the ARB.

No disasters yet. LWB to collect tomorrow and if Vitmad is about some 15x10s to collect too.
I need to swap my front clip and possibly splash some paint about. Handbrake may need fiddling with for MOT.
Then back to "dismantling" the LWB.

Re: July 6th-7th Wiltshire by-way session
I've still got a few bits to put back together too... both axles... all bearings/seals... rear disc conversion (thanks ferris)... new diff... master cylinder... weld on new perches... transferbox mounts... etc etc
Hopefully will get stuff sorted out and a bit of a shakedown before the 6th/7th but got to get on with it!

Re: July 6th-7th Wiltshire by-way session
Well I checked my wheel bearings today and they are fine, got a little slop in a kingpin and a warped disc though at least I've got a stack of spare discs started getting my full float axle sorted ready to go on, got some stuff to chop off it, extend the spring perches for 410 spacing, build up the diff and she'll be good to go.
