So I will put in the last two days work I have done getting it back on the road:1. New Shocks - GT Monroe's, difficult task with your classic early 1900's spring compressors.2. New Drivers side rear Brake caliper.3. Dropped the oil and replaced with Nulon 10w 40 full synthetic.4. Changed oil filter, duh.5. Whilst doing this ^^ I also removed the old turbo oil feed line, and replaced it with a nice new steel braided line and inline Earls filter.6. Tightened Handbrake and adjusted handbrake inside rotors.7. Replaced leaking turbo Oil return line (Bottom of Turbo to Sump).NOTE - if anyone is looking for my old return line, its somewhere about 100 - 300m away in some bush where I effing LAUNCHED it whilst taking a short temper relief break from trying to locate the top bolts into the turbo with gasket sealer going everywhere, spanners dropping into my face and oil dripping in my eyes. Guaranteed worst job on the car yet, which included bleeding the clutch line.8. (Lovely segway you say?) Installed new Clutch line from Fluid reservoir to the back of the pedal Box (Oh god, the hose clamps on this are not possible to get at without removing your pedal box; LUCKILY!9. Removed pedal box! Installed new accelerator which will hopefully turn off the pesky Engine Light that's been troubling me for some time (even Ford didn't know what was causing it!)10. Replaced Power Steering line - This was another relatively frustrating task; however, once I removed everything in my way (Turbo air intake, Coolant system piping etc) it seemed to go on ok with a bit of firm persuasion.11. Replaced serpentine drive belt.That should cover it! The last two days have been pretty productive! Now just to bleed all of the lines to make sure they are good to go and the Bogan Chariot is back to roadworthy! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
