It's operation day tomorrow

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Thanks Rhinoman, every day I'm getting more movement and it's getting easier to move around. A few more weeks and I should be back in the workshop :doublethumbs:

Personally I've seen too much. The world isn't ready for legs like them.

Trousers mate, god gave us them for a reason. :middelfangers: on the plus side good to hear you'll be up and about soon enough. :thumbup:

Cheers Dom.

I'm doing pretty well now, movement is really good, just gotta take it steady. Have even driven the Zuki in the last two days :armsup:

Next step is I get back in the workshop and back to work. Happy about the first one, not so much the second :lol:

Hope all is getting better for you as well now :thumbup:

And don't worry Jordi, I might keep the legs covered for you :lol:

Hiya Dan,
Yer I know its been ages, I haven't deserted suzukiclubuk.
Like in my previous post , I wont bore anyone about it.
Glad Scottie on the mend.

If I can , my next thing on my list on my SJ is to sort out the leaf springs bushes, either replacing them, or completely replacing the springs .

That's if I can avoid doing my back and arm any more problem.

Dom
