Starlet Nath Posted January 28, 2009 Author Posted January 28, 2009 Not much of an update tonightI have removed the dash loom off the dash as seen in the first picture from last nights pictures, also started to take all the nuts off that hold the heater matrix in place.Tomorrow night I will take out the heater matrix, remove the steering column and that'll be about it for the interior side of the front cut. I'll then take the ARB, hubs and the lower arms off then the last thing to remove will be drain the gearbox and remove the drive shafts and then I'll be ready to remove the engine fom the front cut My offer of help still hasn't arrived yet, in the mean time I'll struggle on on my own (don't worry Phil I know you come round every night if you lived here!!!)

Starlet Nath Posted January 29, 2009 Author Posted January 29, 2009 Well here's tonights updateI have removed the heater matrixThen I removed the brake and clutch pedalsOnly the steering column and the gearstick to remove and the interior side is finishedStarted to take apart the front hub assembly, but as it hasn't got a damper attached to it I was fighting a losing battle. So I've given up for tonight, I'll fit a spare damper I have in the garage tomorrow and I can get the drive shaft nut off then I'll take the lower arm off Quote

Starlet Nath Posted February 2, 2009 Author Posted February 2, 2009 Just a quick update..After speaking to a guy from Competition Supplies at the Autosport International Show in early January I have decided to fit a Tilton Pedal box. Unfortunately the pedal box has only just come out and hasn't reached our shores yet. But I already have my order in and it should be here in early April ready for the shell going for it's cage.Anyway here is the catalogue, the pedal box I'm getting is on pages 2 & 3 Quote

Starlet Nath Posted February 6, 2009 Author Posted February 6, 2009 Well had the day off today so done a few bits and pieces on the front cutI finished off stripping the passenger side hubHowever it wasn't straight forward, after spending ages trying to split the driveshaft from the front hub. So I ended up spliting the driveshaft and leaving one end in the gearboxSplit hubs from lower arms and dropped them offThen repeated on the drivers sideAll removed parts Quote
