Even more work!

After a parts injection from Talon, I've fully welded my front and rear lower wishbones. Painted the fronts (one coat to keep the red fuzz at bay) and double checked that all the dimentions are spot on.

Must say, all the parts from Talon are top-notch, the bush tubes are even cleaned along one side to show where the join line is!

Have also made up some spacers from 2 lengths of 19mm box to hold the new steering bearing in place, and have sanded around 1mm off the plastic triangle-to-circle adapter so it fits in. Once all bolted in place it should provide a much stronger steering system.

Oh yes, also recieved my extra large tap spanner and tapped the large thread for one of the upper wishbones. So they'll be next made!
