Todays efforts were fairly noticable!

Discs fitted


Which meant i could roll it up to the ramp and get busy on the rear end!

Brakes built up with new stubs, shoes, drums, bearings, cylinders, handbrake cables + fittings.



Rear beam all fitted with new poly bush's


Under shot



Also fitted the rear coilovers so now sits like this :-)




Also postman brought me these.

Top door seals


Tailgate wire tubes


Then i had to stop and go and see sean (sphmk1) also collect a rear spoiler for campaignjerry and collect some bits i won on ebay. 6 hour journey and im shattered.

Tomorrow should see the brakelines all done and possably some of the glass fitted?

Where did you get these from? Is it the small rubber that sits around the top edge of the door? I need some!

More bits arrived :-)

New boot seal

Fitted


New window runner seals

Test fitted


New door perimeter seals


New scraper seals


Spend 1/2 the day high on glue fumes!


New wire runner rubber fitted, anyone doing this, my advise is to pop the terminals out of the wiper motor plug, and remove the shelf support bracket. easy as pie!


Yeay we have the 1st bit of glass in :-)
Found that silicone spray on the seals made fitting the on the glass a whole lot easier! (maybe different with old seals?)


Popping back up later to fit 1/4 glass and screen.
