Post by: djdunkyd on September 27, 2014, 08:48:44 AM
Morning All

I have a question about the back part of my Chassis as to what I can safely take off and undo to to give me access to clean it down ready for painting. I am only doing it buy hand with Hammer-rite. Are their bit that I just should not undo or others I can take out a couple of bolts clean and then put them back ?

You can take the gearbox out with the swing axles as one a simple enough job refer to a work shop manual as the axles have to go back in to the same position as they came out you can mark the position with a cold chisel before you start. Good luck with the refurb. ;-)up

As said box and shocks are easily removed and refitted just needs the brakes bleeding afterwards.  One observation your clutch outer flexy tube needs to have  more of a bend in it or you will suffer from judder on taking up drive plus one other the joints on the drive shaft boots want to be a 3 or 9 o clock not 12.
