  4. Hopefully I can grab a bit of time tmw
    I've the other driveshaft to fit
    A rigid brake line to run to the front
    Then the wheels can go on and the back end can go back down on the ground.

    It was supposed to be started a fortnight ago
    I'd better give the builder a call to see if it's ready yet.

    It will be a such heartache if the first day you take it out it's piddling down. Lovely job dude. :thumbsup:

    Roads??
    Roads??
    I thought this was going to be more of an off-road mean machine?
     
  13. Fitted the other driveshaft
    I'm short of three bolts for some reason
    So I will have to come back to it

  16. Last three cv bolts fitted and wheels put on.
    I need to get someone to hold the wheel whilst I torque the bolts up
    Then I can drop the back end down.

  17. Refitted the side bars
    These and the bumpers need stripping and re painting but that can come after it's on the road.
    I'm going to coat them in upol raptor.
