Don’t know if anyone’s interested? But here goes anyway, it started when I took the front wheels off to nip up the wheel bearings, got a little carried away and here’s what I ended up with:

Took the opportunity to tart it up a bit:

You’ve got to love a bit of POR15:

The silver paint on the Terrafirma shocks is so thin that after a year rust was starting to show so wire brushed and POR15, they will last a while now:

Did a bit of head scratching over the shock washers, but got there in the end:

Had to fit new swivel balls as the old ones were badly pitted:

Job done and wheels going back on:

While I was under there I fitted a full set of Super Pro caster correction bushes, new wheel and swivel pin bearings and a load of other bits and bobs. I’ll do the same to the rear axle once I’ve re-gained my enthusiasm.
 
Body is a Range Rover colour - burnt orange. Looks great in the sun but too nice for off roading!
