Had a cheeky hour under the J before the wind and rain and got the last two bolts out :) . I can wiggle the starter motor but I can't pull it out enough according to the clutch change guide. It's very tight under there to get a hand to it.

Just bought me some Aisin Freewheeling Hubs with conical washers in good condition for 50 £.
Have ordered some adaptor rings too.
Just need to buy a protection for the D&G 4.16 dropbox and then were ready to go again. :)
