Fitted bearings all round after giving everything a good clean, Surprising how long it took If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem mate Attachments: The following user(s) Liked this: stingray-63, 1972 LeMansGT Jim, Lemsko

Heap done on the Javelin tonight, Shocks rebuilt (helped having the correct shock tool) couldn't help making a couple of extra alloy tube braces because hahaha. I was never a fan of the OG wheels, I had a set of optima's to put on, Plenty of gutter rash so ran them through the lathe
