Well it has been a while since I updated. That's not to say I haven't been working hard to get the car done. I'll post more pics soon but the updates now are.
- Tail shaft measured and made using 1350 series slip yoke assembly.
- New cross member fabbed with new bushings and crush sleeves.
- Made up my cantilever arms with spherical bearings for the shift leaver.
- Turned a shim down to get the correct TOB throw.
Now all I have to do is linish the above and paint.
Ive ordered all new bolts and will pick them up today.
Ive also pulled the side pipe off, ordered in new flange gaskets and repacked the pipes with fibreglass mat to keep the noise down.
The new Mrk2 GB arrives next week so I'll swap the hose outlets over and then bolt it all in and fill it with
oil.
Then the car is off to Chunky's to get the electrical work done, then back to the shed for a systems check, brake bleed and valve lash and its done.
I was hoping to be ready for rd 2 A series tomorrow but Its just impossible with the amount of work needed. Fingers crossed I'll be ready early for round 3.
