I needed a break from bogie springs, ball joints, suspension rods and the frustration that comes with trying to seperate them.
Now that you can actually own, rather than rent, a gas cylinder, I forked out the cash and purchased a bottle of oxy, borrowed the neighbours lpg regulator and did what little panel beating is required on the carrier.
The front and rear towing eyes are now level, as much of the dent as my skills allow had been taken out of the air scoop. The only thing left to straighten are the guard rails for the exhaust pipes, then it's hopefully off to the sandblasters.
I also re-attached the rear tool plate to its angle iron as it had been neatly cut off. With the aid of my junior spanner holders, removed the rear bogies from the hull as well as finished stripping the bearings from the wheels prior to them going off to Hugh Davies in SA for re-rubbering.
Now back to pulling the suspension apart.
