A spares shed, I like that idea 

[minimk1]

rebuilt the diff on my spare 998

Finally got round to returning the rear lights and front indicators to standard.

 

 

Smiling in the sun!

 

 

 

I much prefer the standard lights to those clear ones with this colour.

Replaced the water pump, bypass hose and radiator.

Nightmare getting the rear lower bolt on the cowling off as had rusted in.

Brute force and an angle grinder sorted in the end.

Fingers crossed no more leaks!

It's all stuff I need to sort, but now it's in there it wont be happening any time soon.

 

I welded up the holes where I removed the lip from my bonnet and moved more stuff into the shed

I gave mine a service and then a good clean and polish. I have only had it 2 days and have not stopped playing with it yet.

Got the car out of the garage, run an extension lead for the welder, cleaned up the spots I was going to weld and sprayed them with weld through primer. Because its so bloody cold the paint took ages to dry and it started raining. Put it all back in the garage and went back in the house. Marvellous!

Replaced the tie bar bushes, set the front camber and tracking.

 

Then the tracking, alignment and camber on the rear as well.

 

What a difference!!

 

Then replaced the padding on both door bars and wrapped them in vetwrap to stop them from getting torn when you catch them getting in and out.

Gave both the classics a good wash. Then next doors nipper who was playing outside got hold of my pressure washer gun and snow foamed me too

Hi had the pleasure of changing the steering rack today .  It was being a right git, one of the u bolts just wasnt having it but it saw it my way in the end . Brute force does come in handy from time to time. A good job out of the way and releived its all back together and tracked up.

Felt like a kid playing with playdough sealing up the exhaust .

Friday I fitted 2 drivers side ball joints. Today I fitted the 2 passenger side ball joints, fitted a new pair of rear shocks, went over the exterior with some quick detailer to get rid of the crappy Sahara dust filled water marks. Also put some nuts on the back of my switch panel to hold it in and tried lubing my speedo cable (with GT85, failed, still squeaks so needs a proper grease).

 

All in all, very happy. No more knocks from the rear of the car (I assume it was dodgy/old shocks) and no more play in the front wheels.

New heater matrix fitted and all topped up with coolant
All rear lights finally finished loomed aswell
New gear selector seal and even replaced the ally seal with o ring
All in all a productive day

I fitted a 12v charger and USB port where the ash tray was on the dash!
