Hi Jack I used an air gun with a wire brush on the end and cleaned the splines up then put grease on then used a drill with a finger wire brush and also cleaned up the splines on the one u sent me then greased that also. So should go back on easy enough i hope

Coming from "Vitara-land" (before I "upgraded" to a Jimny! ;) ) I've always put the steering shaft back in whilst lowering the body back down... it might work Jack's way, but I prefer to get it in during the body descent... ;)

OK guys thanks very much for the advice I got the steering linkage on i tried it Jack's way first but it was a tad to long to get it back on so lifted the body up slightly and on it popped with no hassle whatsoever bolted all the body back down and no problems there either just need to get the nuts on the top of the new shocks as jack said might need to use an old rubber for this and I have the springs for the rear but to my absolute annoyance rear shocks are out of stock grrrrr
