Slowly,
Sorry to hear about the achillies I did mine 2 1/2 years ago, 3cm tear, surgery, 2 Months in a cast and another 1 in a MOON BOOT,,,Not fun.
I didn't think public servants moved that quickly to break anything ( except the budget )
You seem to be redoing everything in this rebuild, wiring/engine/exhaust/interior/bars, it would be interesting to work out the cost difference between doing it once properely and your way. Maybe once completed you can drill down and compare what things need to be done once and let the newbies know.
Good Luck,
P.S. which leg? mine was the left so I could still drive an auto.
