House's ITB XE build and re-build
Bolts arrived today for the beam so thought I'd have a crack at it.
Bolts for holding the bearings on are wrong, the shank is far too long, re-ordered, should be here Tuesday
Got one side done, threw a wheel on to check the clearance to it and make sure it'll work.

Pretty pleased with most of that. The lines will stay as a separate feed for both left and right for now but it'll be changing to a single flexi to the beam and a T piece on the beam itself for when this moves to the new shell.
Rear discs are also huge at 264mm but the pads are teeny!!! Handbrake will be a mash up for Nova and combo van, if I can re-rope a lift I'm almost certain I can figure out a handbrake setup that will work!!
Track and Road Wednesday for a little map tune, then up to see my partner in crime and off to our little house we're renting for Wednesday night, it's got a hot tub!! Then Cadwell Thursday morning!!
Car is pretty much ready, new front flexis going in tomorrow and re-instate the passenger brake ducting. Seat is in it's new lower position so I'm looking forward to trying that and first time at Cadwell on slicks, Vbox will defo be on, see if we can get below 1.50!!!
Wow long post, mostly waffle.
