I wanted to repaint my calipers as they had a nice film of surface rust, but instead I just left this job to rust converter to do its magic. It's also easily wiped off unlike caliper paint.

Today I fitted the 3 transfer box mounts. The 3 bottom nuts came off easily but I had to remove both the arms to use heat on the top 3. The decade old ones were softer and compressed more easily but they hadnt deteriorated as much as I had thought.

A bit of luxury for the cold mornings to come. A heated seat pad fitted neatly behind the waterproof seat overs.

I received this bonnet protector today from Dave at Bits4vits. It's used, but with a quick clean and polish it it came up a treat.

This morning I removed the anti roll bar and wire brushed the flakey paint and corrosion off and started coating it in hammerite.



Then on go the new polybush ARB bushes and drop links.
