God help you

Next item is removal of carb and inlet manifold. Nightmare to understand all the hoses and what goes where??
Am replacing with a SU HIF44 and Rockwatt manifold. Not 100% sure what is retained and what can go.
The carb bolts are from the top of the carb. Another Spanish variation?

The SU HIF44 I have had rebuilt. Now sorting out and ordering all ths parts I need to fit it.

Exhaust system unpacked ready for installation.

Some activity undertaken today:-
Removal of transfer box support rubbers with bolts well rusted in, cleaning up, Kurust and epoxy primer on metal prior to final painting.
Primer filler plus rubbing down on rear bumper.
Further work on electrics at rear of vehicle.

Attached picture shows secondhand X-Eng transfer box handbrake I purchased. Have got new pads and a cable but am lacking a spacer ring. Picture attached showing how it fits.
Have tried to source without success. Anyone on here have any ideas at all?

Someone with a spacer contacted so problem solved.
Onto the next challenge!!

Between other tasks, in the household, put the rear bumper on temporarily and attached rear fog lights. Some fettling of both needed before final fixing.

Some activity during last day or so. Rear bumper finally fixed on all 6 No M6 bolts. Required some persuasion but in the end all firmly in their respective captive nuts. Front bumper requires a good sand down and treatment. A start has been made. Lot more to do though.
