Fixed spotlight wiring, fitted xtrousers, replaced both front seatbealts and middle rear. Sprayed bolts and nuts so hopefully next weekend bushes and a frame ball joint will be easy.

Fitted new brake shoes today.
Last week, fitted up the "safe trouser" (?) latch to the front doors, at the same time, tightened up all the latches so it loses some of the road noise from the rear doors.
Also today, fixed my rear mud flaps, one had ripped out, so added some ally angle to the inside of the guard to strengthen it up a bit.
Fitted a set of dobinson shocks to complement the springs fitted recently. :cool: thanks dobinson sydney for the good deal.
Found water pump leak and power steering leak. :(
Nuthin....... still :mad:
me too, but seriously have to extract the digit and get stuck into herQuote:

Looks good :cool:
I finally fixed my windscreen washers (sort of) and cleaned the washers for the headlights with domestos :eek: but they still don't work so might need to keep investigating that...
A few more paint/sand cycles on the C pillar trim piece, should be good to go back on tomorrow, although I might brace it a bit...
Will be good to go for a drive, thinking I might do a night run somewhere...
