Clearly I should have gone for other products then but this is my first off roader and was never gunna have millions of quid spent on it. And yes Series 3 Sweet 16, it is the original colour.

So progression started off slowly this morning with the passenger side front suspension taking near 3 hours to replace. Then the drivers side went a lot smoother once we had a better idea on what to do. Sadly no before and after shots of the front. Also started cleaning up the inside ready to...

Also got 70% of my chequer plate sprayed black.

We did run out of drive way so doubled it up :)

Right then folks! A very productive day on the drive today! First up, we got the old (I assume original) rock sliders out. They were a bit stubborn to say the least! Then on to rear suspension and here we made some great improvements 👍 Old vs the new springs Old vs new washers...

Thanks for all the comments folks. I've thing I still got some more reading to do :)

Hey guys, So Im planning a split battery charge thing in my ninety for lights, winch and CB. Maybe there is a guide already on here somewhere, but being a nooby on here, I couldnt see it. So is there a list somewhere of what I would need for my set up? All I know is I need a second battery...

She's not as good as she looks. Doors are rusted through in the bottom. And the rear cross member. She was also sat up in a barn for 3 years from 2010 to 2013. Pictures to follow.

I'll be up there soon when my 90 is ready :) I suppose everyone here is kinda local then?

Thanks greyhair!

I'll get photos of the rear crossmember up this weekend in the daylight. two sections aren't very good but other than that the chassis is solid all round.

Haha okay mate thanks. I'll see how they get on when she's on the road again :) 👍

It cant be anything like my current car. Got a stripped out civic type r and thats rock solid so even if this is 5% softer I'll be happy haha She's gunna be a tow vehicle so thought it was a good move to get the up rated springs But yes she will see some off-roading unloaded aswell

Thanks for the clarification on that folks :) I'll get some photos up at the weekend of the bad bits. But these lot just arrived at work and I came straight home to un box it all. 😝 Heavy duty springs Shocks Snorkel Side chequer plates Rear washer jet CB radio (in another box) And...
