    James Mac's Defender 90 Rebuild

    On another note, I went and collected my chassis from Richards this morning and put it in my dads garage, I can't get it down to mine for another few weeks so that'll give me time to finish off the front axle so I can get it rolling straight away.

    James Mac's Defender 90 Rebuild

    So, Iv got there rear axle 99% complete now, I finished off the drive flange and made the brake pipes, I accidentally put the callipers on the wrong side too so I had to swap them around as well. Iv just got to put the new magnetic diff pan plugs in and then fill it with oil now.

    James Mac's Defender 90 Rebuild

    The blue is Gwyn Lewis' fault, he sent me some blue trailing arms so I decided to paint everything else to match :) I bought grey paint in the end, if i don't like it I'll just paint over it. I can't decided if I should brush or spray it on?

    James Mac's Defender 90 Rebuild

    Time for an update I think, iv not really done that much to be honest but I'm collecting my galv chassis and bulkhead next week so I should be able to get it rolling fairly quickly. I primered all the suspension parts and then gave them a coat of ultra marine blue so they are all nice and...
