Thanks Lionel! That's a fair bit less than I thought it would be. Even if that were kgs, I wouldn't have doubted it. That probably explains why my home made engine trolley hasn't collapsed yet! Also, I have been able to lift one end of the engine trolley, and should have realised that it couldn't be too heavy if I could do that. Well, when I say 'lift' I mean take enough weight off the tyre to drag it sideways.
I painted the front spring to axle attaching hardware this morning. Then started putting the front springs back on. The rear shackle will have to come off again when the new bushes arrive. The above things brought me to about 1300hrs, so I started looking for something else to do, so I decided to try reinstalling the front axle to the chassis.
Had a few things to move around before I had any chance of doing the reassembly inside the workshop.

Engine cranes, eh! Is there anything they cannot do? Just pull the chassis to one side and wheel the front axle around to where the assembly will be done.

Then a matter of aligning the two parts in 3 dimensions. How hard could that be!?!? One thing I REALLY like about my paint choice, it dries extremely fast, especially in a Queensland heatwave.

A few turns of the spanner/s, and the mandatory scarred knuckles later, and I now have a rolling chassis!!!! Even put the steering box on, but it was after I had taken these photos. Due to a persistent oil leak in the box, I removed the oil and replaced it with a semi-grease type lube that is especially for steering boxes that just won't seal completely.

Nice straight lines too. Mind you, I had so many of the cross members off that it really couldn't be out now.
