well I decided the suspension bushes could do with a change so I got through all the shackles today, unfortunately I didn't get a pic as the rain was on and off all day, so tried to do as much as possible in between the showers.
On the bright side I remembered to get a pic while i was adjusting the voltage regulator! The old analysing machines come in handy on the old rigs.

Hopefully the rain holds off tomorrow so I can finish wiring in the winch and some lights.

The ute is looking good. Hope you have a chance this days to enjoy it.

Where did you sourced the suspension bushes?

thanks Esteban hopefully not too long now and I will be able to drive it, I've had the suspension bushes on the shelf from when my father had his g60, brand new bushes that he would have gotten back in the 1970's! Still wrapped in the original wax paper.
