So after stripping 99% of the running gear and underneath of 4i I now got to put it all back together before getting chance to clean and repaint under side and all parts either cleaned up or new as need to find alternative accommodation,
Now half the garage is packed up I'm finding I've moved/packed/stored nuts bolts and parts all over the place!!!
Had 5 min brain melt down putting front wheel on yesterday as I'm looking for the locking wheel bolts!
Then remembering I have locking wheel nuts and I've removed hub studs a while ago lol
And I can't remember where I've put them!
So it's a bit of Mitch match old new or cleaned up parts going back on,
Then to new place eventually and start the rebuild all over again!
Wish me luck!
