Did a few bits in preparation for the MOT tomorrow. I replaced the 2 short brake pipes between the rear flexible pipes and the wheel cylinders. I also replaced the shoes and springs, adjusting the drums correctly, then set the hand brake lever travel.
I swapped all the wheels for a set of 17 Trek (HSE) rims with larger AT tyres.
I replaced the offside front caliper with a new one, as the one on there had seized absolutely solid.
I took the opportunity to make sure the nearside disc assembly was working correctly too.
I also swapped the cam sensor as it randomly flags a code, and puts the MIL on, which isn't ideal before the MOT.
Fingers crossed, it'll pass the MOT, although the brakes feel a bit spongy to me, but I'm OCD.
I also fitted a set of front fogs to my SE, which is something I'd been meaning to do for the last 2 years.
