New bushes on the rear radius arms ... the auld ones were those pesky rubber ones, but the new ones are nice colourful Poly ones. First one took me minutes to get the arm off (I deliberately did the one that didn't need replacing first.) Anyway about 3 hours and several knackered screwdrivers later, I had the auld bush out and the arm back on. The second one came off even faster and I popped up to a local engineer's as they were supposed to have made me a couple of flanges and while I was there I got them to pop the auld bush out of the second arm for me. Took them about 30 mins and 5 minutes later the arm was back on TheBus.

I wanted to do the brake pipes, but I was cold, tired, hungry and desperate for a cuppa tea. Brake pipes can get left until tomorrow.

Britpart are a supplier not a manufacturer, you have to be careful to specify exactly what you want when buying. They will sell you everything from genuine and uprated parts to complete rubbish.
 
Finished fitting a new O/S half shaft and CV joint, new bearings, discs, pads, calipers, braided hoses and HD drive flanges. Shiny bits..!

The wife and I did the Berkshire 4x4 experience - really enjoyed it and had a top instructor. Thank god it was his landy as we got it sh1t-up.
 
removed me CB Aerial from the rear gutter mount and moved it onto me light bar. & rerouted the coax cable. Had to drop most of the roof lining to do it though :doh: serves me right for doing the job properly in the first place. Fitted me front steering guard.

Also put me AutoHaven 4x4 tent up to air it out as it's been packed away for nearly 4 years :eek:
