Continued the rebuild of my ZTT it’s new inner and outer track rod ends, new front upper arm mounting bushes, which means the complete front suspension has now been replaced.
Did the rear swing arm bushes but had the wrong parts for the anti roll bar (now on order) so that’s all that’s outstanding to complete the rear suspension rebuild (cheers for doing most of it TRikey)and also sent the wrong handbrake cables!
Moved onto painting all suspension and subframes with hammerite followed by schultzing the the entire underside 3 times then waxoil into the lower arms and sills.
Finally lifted the slam panel to improve the shut lines and fit of front bumper.
To say I’m knackered is an understatement.
I had help from my tame mechanic Carl Davies at esplanade garage in Scarborough who I can highly recommend he’s rapidly becoming an expert on these car from all the work I get him to do😀 and he’s very reasonably priced
