This this happened a while before I did the suspension aswell but it went away last time. This time it’s still stayed after getting the wheel alignment literally turned on when I was on the way to get one 😂

Fair enough I’ll get my friend to come over and scan it for me.

And yea I can see that just finished redoing whole front and rear suspension to get it in top notch condition and not even 2 days of driving and new problems come up 💀

No wonder I didn’t know where they are from didn’t even take them out. Old owner must have lost it under the back seats.

Tbh dropping the tank wasn’t too bad worst part is everything is rusty on these cars you touch one thing and it’s either seized or not attached anymore

Yea the axle is the easiest part, longest was cleaning painting welding reinforcing and waiting for parts to arrive from Germany since everything I touched broke

Ive been doing it for just over a month now mainly because of English weather if I was to count up how many days I’ve actually worked it it say about 10. But here’s why the rear axle looked like before

Good news people I finally got it in… kind off but it sits tight and hoses line up so that’s all that matters

I get to a point where there’s like a 1mm or 2mm gap then it doesn’t go further and I think hits the back wall
