So... I bought a Rallye

Inner bearings set at a depth of 200mm I believe. Not sure on outer bearings.

Off set washers live in the trailing arms. Plastic screws I think fix the arb end plates to the trailing arms

think it'll just be the case of having a butchers at the kit, I've lowered several beams in the past so know the ins and outs of getting them apart in that regard (the proper way not "clicks") and have a torsion bar puller tool

When I finish work tomorrow I'm going to give it a bit of a hoover and another look over in regards to what bits I want to buy for it...

I know I need to change the following bits that look a little tired compared to the rest and the bits I wanted to revert to standard when buying
  • Gearknob badly worn - have a BNIB that came with the car
  • Bonnet decal, remove awful replica that's cracking and fit a genuine item
  • Window winders going milky - change - DONE
  • Headlining clip/screw missing - replace - DONE
  • Re-fit standard stereo linking up the factory fit cd changer and remote stalk - DONE
  • Remove rusting fuel rail and replace with better condition one I already have
  • Source and fit an unbroken jack holder
  • Remove spare wheel and wheel cage, clean, repaint and refit
  • Replace throttle cable - Need to buy one as the current has dried out and is very stiff (improved with oiling with it held up high and working in and out but not 100%)
  • Jack up each corner, remove wheels, clean inside and out, clean arches inc under the arch trim and inspect for surface rust
