Gav Missen Posted May 16, 2023 Author Share Posted May 16, 2023 So got the axle off and it was in a bit of a state stripped the brakes and back plates off to clean it up as much as I could with a wire wheel tapped up the areas I needed and gave it all a coat in black still have the callipers etc to paint back in red, new rear bearings have arrived just need to order new discs and pads for the back. also my Tegiwa half rad turned up today as the half rad I had on was getting a bit tatty Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gav Missen Posted May 17, 2023 Author Share Posted May 17, 2023 Managed to get the axle back on tonight along with my Gizfab panhard rod not properly adjusted yet only by eye will get a full geo setup once it’s back on the road Then moved on to the rad had issues with the original grommets fitting the half rad fitting kit so took some advice from @Claymore and sorted some other out cheers bud! Haven’t attached the hoses yet as I may get a different fan for the rad instead of the ones that cable tie through, also fitted the RW developments expansion tank Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gav Missen Posted May 29, 2023 Author Share Posted May 29, 2023 Update time she’s finally back on all 4 no more stands 😂🙌 still needs to go back up as I haven’t fitted the wilwoods yet but managed to get the axle back to together new rear wheel bearings, discs pads & calipers back on Still need to do some adjustment on the suspension to get it sitting right but the wider wings has definitely helped with the fitment on the front may need some adjustment on the rear Never get bored looking at this also decided to strip the rear and spray it only done it in high build primer at the moment till I get some more 040 white but it’s a start Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gav Missen Posted November 26, 2023 Author Share Posted November 26, 2023 Forgot to update this in a while and definitely don’t have as many photos as I’d like 🤦🏼♂️ just been trying to plumb all the electrics in hook up the vacuum lines etc also made up some fuel lines Starting to look more like a bay now with some parts from DJR also finished off painting the boot floor and under the rear seats (I’ll get some more photos of it now with the rear brace and plastics in etc) intercooler turned up so briefly test fitted it in to place held the toms bumper up against it still plenty of trimming needed before I can actually fit it but looks soo much better this is where I am at at the moment struggling to find a long enough turbo oil return 16-19mm for the top mount hopefully will be able to fire her up soon 🙈 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
