Fitted the TF +5" adjustable shocks, well, it is sad that TF have made the height of the pins so short that getting the nut to engage is a right PITA.

Also fitted matching Extreme 4x4 front springs. They went on easily.

The +5" brake lines mostly went on OK.

Cheers
 
Well, today I have replaced the UJs on the steering shaft in an effort to get the front wheel to point roughly in the same direction and at the same time as I turn the steering wheel.

There was a slight improvement. The drop arm ball joint is next. Then I may get to experience that famous "vague" steering everybody has been bragging about.;)
 
Put on 2 (balanced)front tyres. Hopefully the wobble may be gone.

Got some more speed stripes with @My Old Landy today

Found the reason the reversing light was on continously, I'd connected the wrong green wire to it :mad::(:mad: Rewired the rear wiper, got that right 1st time. :D:D
Rewired the leccy cooling fan, was sure I'd got it right, waggled a few connections and it worked a bit. Changed the relay, worked a bit better, changed the inline fuse holder, works perfectly. Fecking electrics.
Squirted some white silicon in the roof/screen joint, also around the glass in the rear door, splashed a bit more paint around.
 
Collected some more engine oil.
Tested new tyres.
Woop woop no wobble
I had an indicated 67mph backed up by the satnav on the way back down the A34 yesterday :eek:
That's the fastest I have gone in the old girl and no wobble ;) all that bouncing must have straightened up the front end :rolleyes:
 
Finished painting the body.

Refitted the rear wiper and spare wheel carrier. Failed to fit the rear door trim panel that I had salvaged off my 110 before I sold it 7 or 8 years ago.:mad::( Door check arm is in a totally different position between a 1985 110 and my current 1991 90. Think I will make one out of ply.
Faffed about putting some sound deadning mat on top of the seat box, got the seats back in, and started painting a couple of the wheels.

That's a great picture. I love the way you have got the height and gradient perspective to show. Although, it still probably looked steeper and higher in real life. Whenever I take shots like that it looks completely flat on the picture :(
 
So looks like a blown a fuse to the side lights. Not got a tester to check as these are glass fuses and may just need a clean.

Now if I put the headlights on the rear lights also come on. I’m sure they should come on with the side lights ?

Sat towing a horse trailer @54mph hate this speed as it’s happy in 4th but don’t like 5th.
100mile round trip.
