Got my front coilovers on, replaced the ball joints, the trackrod ends, a hub, a driveshaft, a cv joint, cv boots, drilled out the screws that hold the brake disks on as the were snapped off, now ready to be rethreaded, fitted the anti roll bar and new droplinks, wire brushed the callipers ready to be painted, replaced an abs sensor.

Tomorrow I will paint and refit the callipers, change a few bolts on the back (brakes an axle bolts) adjust the exhaust as it is a bit twisted, I'll try to get a radiator and get that fitted, change a rear abs sensor, raise the back suspension as it's too low, bleed the brakes and start to refit the interior.

Current cars 1995 Golf gti colour concept 2.0 8v 156,000 miles. bmw 316 1.9 129,000. yeah, life's good! :rolleyes:
