Default Suspension and fluids done

Big thanks to solarman for helping me sort out all my diff and box fluids today aswell as sorting out the spring spacers and suspension lift. I learnt a great deal of information and watching rick work his magic when normal procedures just dont work was interesting! We also discovered leaking veg oil from the injector leak off hoses. As a spacer thing on my clutch pedal was also knackered (found whilst changing the master cylinder) rock managed to fabricate one out of something we found

All in all a great day! Thanks again rick

Lifted the rear with a block of wood and a jack

Taking time to line it up right and make sure it didn't kick out

On the new 2.7 facelift molds, the exhaust was in the way to jack up on the left, so rick with his quick thinking came up with this idea

Clutch was all ok actually, I think it may have always been this way just more evident with tinkering
