Ok, so after a few annoying things, like wrong ball joints...... and wrong bearings.......
she now sits on new front wishbones, and new track rod ends
luckily, the ball joints are still ok, but are still on the list of things to change, but they have been bumped down the list a little. Next to do is the wheel bearings when they arrive.
but i also have
- new rear ash tray
- new indicator stalk (she ticks when not being used....)
- new drivers window switches
So she is getting there slowly
Next time i have a few hours, and some daylight, the front bumper is coming back off, and i am going to try and pull the front out a little again. This time using an old rop trick i know, and the tow bar on the boxer...... No i am not going to just reverse really quick....... I have seen tooo many bad endings that way. The trick is, to twist the rope, this then shortens the rope, making it tighter, and making the force adjustable
