Well make sure you take plenty of pics & start a thread, if for nowt else to remind you how it goes back together as if like me it turns out to be over a year later

I might need a westy buddy seat like??

The motor is hiding under a desk in the corner of the garage, I keep checking on it from time to time to see if its got bored of waiting for me & started to rebuild its self, but alas nothing yet

I'll give it a couple more weeks though!!!

If still nowt, I'll get on it!!

[Lee C]

Will do it's just getting round to it!
Unfortunately I don't have the westy buddy seat :-( only the wardrobe and rock and roll bed.

Reet, seeing as for the first time ever my JK. Order didn't turn up next day, I cracked on smartening up the rear backing plates, unfortunately doing them red 2k to match the front ones would have been too much hassle.
So satin black they went, might flash the front ones in satin too?? :?

And t'other side,

Another crappy job done!!!!

 

[Lee C]

And another, window scrapers n seals!!!

Well it was easy actually, just got Darren to do it while I was busy!!! :lol:

Not much to show, especially as I had such grand plans!!! :roll:

Well a bit done today, Darren cracked on rebuilding the brake callipers , but then he checked over my apparently shoddy workmanship greasing the front hubs & decided we need new front wheel bearings!!! :shock:
So I'll get them ordered on Monday morning to be fitted on Tuesday night, then we can fit the callipers!!!

So once I'd done with the customers I started the rear brakes, I was a bit :? As to how to do them as I didn't strip them & they were differnt to he splitty, but while Darren chatted on the phone

n Carl just stood about

I got them sorted :lol:

That's it for now, wheel bearings, front brakes, centre heater tube, drive shafts next.
Then hopefully should have me new wheels n tyres back??
