Now, since I can`t work om my rust. I am working on the suspension. Need to remove bushings, bearing, studs. So I can deliver it to be galvanized at Vestby Galanisering. So looking forward to get it back all shiny and fresh! After that my plan is to get some parts powdercoated for some extra protection and nice finish It is a car that will be used alot, but I like to do the little extra when I first do it

Started the day with installing my "new" tool on my bench! So happy with it, it works and does what it supposed to do I find a new one so expensive for a good one. So need to use alot of money for a good old one


I also recieved my Cosworth 2wd pickup pipe and oil pump from Paul, PJ motorsport


Started with the busings. I made a tool as I dont have a press to press the bushings out. It usually work, it worked on ONE.. The rest just said NOPE!
So I will just ask Ford workshop in Larvik. They have helped me before with this. I hope in the future to get a small press to to things like bearings etc. I dont like to smash them in with a hammer. I will ask them again with the bearing install.


Started the bearing removal for the front spindles and it goes with no problems at all Old ones out and in the thrash. I did use a hammer to smash the studs out, new longer studs will be used instead


Bearings out


Finished both sides The right side has links if anyone was thinking about that.


Mounted boxes on the wall to get things a bit more organized


Started so with the rear axles


Off with the CV boot clamps and boot.



I have new boots and clamps. But I never get rid of my old ones before I mounted the new. They look like new too New 12.9 unbraco bolts is to be used instead of the oem ones.


Now finished one side! But I need to clean it up before starting on the next one
