Well, I got my rebuilt a-arms back from Glenn's MG last night and put them on today. It sits on it's wheels.The fulcrum pin was seized and all that stuff. I also put on new tie rod ends, sway bar links, and poly bushings. So now I have this nice tight front end and I am about ready to say hell w/ the passenger floor, throw the motor in and get take this sucker around the block. lol.

Earlier this week, I put in Limey's fuse box, headlight relays, and voltage stabilizer. They were very well made and plug n play. Ta again Limey!

All wiring connections from the cab forward are cleaned and greased. I will get to the rear when I get ready to do the bodywork. As for now I will turn the thing around in my garage to do the floor before I put the engine in. I appreciate all of the help that I have received here and hope that I have contributed in some way as well. Cheers lads.

Yeh, I did all that frt end stuff a few mos. back and it was all well worth the busted knuckles with the springs etc. She rides/tracks very true know. Good luck with the restore.

Limey's fuse box. Got her spun around in the garage yesterday and got the rear suspension done. Cleaned the engine bay a little more as well. Will tackle the passenger floor this weekend. After that, the engine can go back in!!!

Looks very familiar! Laying on the floor grinding is a lot of fun! NOT!
