Don’t forget having a decent Bush extractor kit , drop links get the heavy duty ones, the D3 with snap cheap drop links in a heartbeat , think u also used the meyle ones

You're never far away from a good excuse to buy new tools with landys! Yep used meyle hd drop links on front from AF mate
Edit
On your recommendation I may add!
Oh yes , your not wrong there , am still wondering if that long reach zip saw will be quicker than a recip saw, took me 20 x high quality blades to cut through the bolt, as there hardened bolts as well , was a complete @&&@#&# due to lack of room
Fingers crossed u don’t get the grief I had, bolts were seized solid
Perfect , thought u had and hope u didn’t mind me saying , did see a pic where someone had fitted a cheap drop link, he got to the end of the road before it snapped

I'm already sussing the job out. Think I'll cut the arms right down then get the grinder in on the bolt, even if its a 2mm cut just to get a head start then go I'm with a saw. That zip saw you're looking at looks the dogs bollox lol.
Giving the grief I've had at the rear end (fnarrfnarr!) I don't hold out much hope the bolts will come out the sleeves!
Think you sent me that pic of the snapped link, that's scary man they shouldn't be selling them

Just need to fill diff with oil, put trims back on drivers side and get it off the stands. But I've been summoned to the mother in laws for an hour
Yep thats them, not sure open cell foam is the best idea as it will hold water against the chassis, got any old inner tube or something along the same lines.
A few of my wires insulation coating had a good polish and some flat spots where they had been rubbing.
What about some trunking tube stuff ...

That might work, but what rubs is the short wire tails themselves as they come out of the conduit, I wouldnt advise bending them if you can avoid it as they are very thin.
Can you put some round sleeve over the end of the conduit ... I like to use standard outer insulation sleeve from mains cable, (a dead Vax actually), slit and popped over it works ... if it's loose a dab of Superglue holds it on ...
