After a TEN month leave of absence due to major reconstructive surgery on my right foot... I'm back 

Had a good day in the garage, mostly sat on a stool... refurbishing radius arms...

 

Before and after! 

 

I've drilled the axle end rubber bushes too, something I found Simon from E-Eng had done on a Jimny based buggy, during many gours (months!) of keeping myself sane in a hospital bed! 

 

Four done! (Running two front axles to give four wheel steer, keep the buggy small, and disk brakes all round, with fiddle brakes on the rear)...

 

Mock-up time to remind myself where I'm heading, and to inspire me on...

 

You get the idea? The seat needs to be further back though, for weight distribution and leg room...

 

The big buugy out in the October sunshine...

More soon... the idea is to next paint and rebuild the two front axles and then start on the chassis (tube frame)...
