Finally got the swivel balls on tonight. I was always terrified of that job when I previously owned landies... But it was pretty simple! New CV joints too of course (my God that circlip is a ropey solution!)
I couldn't fit the stib axles sadly, as the boys at famous four forgot to include the stib axle inner oil seal in the kit. They did include the roller bearing though... Anyway, oil seal has been ordered. Sadly this delays getting the wheels on.
In other news, the fuel tank arrived. Annoyingly I think it's come with its cradle... annoying as I ordered another one too! Would have been nice if lrdirect called me to check if I was a Muppet.
A brand spanking new compressor has just been ordered, along with that dinitrol "large car" kit.
I'll make the rear axle brake pipe tomorrow, and start thinking about fuel stuff.
