Finished rebuilding the wishbones with new ball joints and front and rear polybushes:
The engine is now ready to come out and depending on weather it should be out tomorrow!
Then hopefully the car should be going tinot the bodyshop the begining of the week!
I have some GAZ coilovers with eccentric top mounts on order thanks to Springs
Whilst the engine is out I plan to do a cambelt and possibly waterpump as I have no history with the car so would make sense to do it whilst its accesible!
Also need to take the turbo aprt and clean out the nozzle ring to hopefully solve the sticking vanes!
The wiring loom is going to get a tidy up!
Going the replace the oil cooler sandwhich plate with a thermostatic one as it never seemed to have much oil temp!
Going to heat wrap the exhaust manifold and downpipe
If its the same I have a polybush lower engine mount
