well today i half gave up for the day, firstly i cut out the bit i forgot to cut out for fitting the engine. I then started reaming the bottom of the front hubs to fit the ball joints, after about 35 min of continuous reaming and a VERY painful arm i stoppedd and left it for a few hours, i then weled on the shock bracket on the lower front wishbones but only just realised that it was meant to be 300mm from the centre of the bush tubes, not 300mm from the end of the wishbones, so will grind off the welds tomorrow and re weld them on. i also stared putiing on all the front running gear, but wasnt sure which way around the mushroom insert was meant to go, but i think the hole in it is meant to be as far in as possible. I then treid to fit the steering rack extensions, but they wont go on all the way as the rack starts spinning then. how do i stop the actual steering rack arm from spinning? today has been abit of a pain as most things that could go wrong went wrong!!!
