Well thought i better get my ass in gear and after 2 weeks looking at her get her off the trailer intresting drive with a broken rear panhard rod.
Wound another panhard rod onto her took 20mins bolts seized in bushes so just cut them out hapy days.
Pumped up the tyres topped up power steering and that shut up wineing
Engine runs sweet as a nut but clutch was rubbish guess what no free play on the cable quick wind of the adjuster and is A1 now feels like there is plenty of life left in it.
Jacked it up checked AVM free wheeling hubs all works fine as does the 4WD
Wing and door off ready to sort the door pillar and windscreen tommorow
So thinking now all in bits better go out for a test drive up the road so much more grunt than the old G series 30mph Oh hello death wobble so bad its funny king pins are good just very unbalanced 31/10.50 MTs im reckoning and no steering damper.
