Mmmmm shiny bits

weather is still too crap to be working outside so i have been rebuilding my front subframe, i had shot blasted the did a bit of seam welding around the front tie bar mounts and various other places then had it powder coated black, im now in the process of fitting nice new shiny bits, i have treated it to new adjustable tie bars, adjustable bottom arms with offset bushes, new cones, hi-lo's, new top arms with new shafts and bearings, new ball joints, new wheel bearings, infact the only old parts going back on are the hubs, i am just waiting for the delivery of my 7.5" disk conversion and adjustable GAZ shocks, I will post some more pics when the subframe is complete
