Looking good, nice place to hide the coil too.
I've been busy tonight and finally got my shafts built up. I used the old boots off the doner shafts for now just until I strip it back down for powder coating.

I got them fitted for now. After all these years it's good to see a set of shafts that fit! lol

Unfortunately I misjudged the space needed for the shaft mount and had to take off the coil until i can modify the mounting bracket a bit.
What and why? Shaft mount?
The mount for the long shaft on the equal length shafts just pushes on the bracket i made to mount the coil to.
LMF have equal length shafts in stock now? Good progress.
Had to wait a couple of weeks but since I was in no hurry lol it wasn't a problem, but yeah they got them for me! :thumb: :d
Finally made the decision to just leave the oil cooler where it was.

Figured it would get enough air through there and i didn't have to remove my slam panel support. Hope to get the pipes crimped for it on Monday then its ready to pop the engine out again :cry: to re-do the chassis leg for more clearance at the alternator.
I also picked this up off ebay this week just to start and tone down the lairy bodykit a bit.

Thought I'd take a little break from fitting the motor today since the next step is to whip it back out again and I'm not doing that this side of billing.
I got my new back bumper delivered today (it's a little more worse for wear than I'd hoped :( but when life gives you lemons nd all that! lol ). This is how the existing back bumper looks:

I've fitted the new bumper but i think its going to take a little more fettling than i thought. There's way too much gap under the rear lights.

I was thinking about just moving the mounting brackets down to raise the bumper up a bit. All in i don't think its going to turn out half bad once its painted.

If anyone has had this problem before and has an easier fix I'd be happy to hear it. :confused: :thumb:
