Marat has just bought a new Jimny, its a different style to those we get over here in the UK.
So the rebuild work continues on the front axle.
You will recall that the leading arms were bent...the yellow object is a spirit level and the arm curves away nicely.
Â
I had a few hours free today to move it on a bit.
Â
If you recall the mounting holes in one of the Leading Arm mounts were worn oval. Therefore I needed to sort out a repair. This was pretty straightforward. I got hold of some 12mm Repair Washers and ground off the plating (its poisonous to weld them)
