Cheers. I had one bar of gprs signal. It took most of my lunch break just for the exchange of 3 messages so a search was off limits.

Thought I'd better post something :D , Torque settings and shim numbers (even if they are on the other diagram :oops: )
I won't bother with the preload, I doubt any of us go through with that bother :er:

No exciting stuff really happening here but still motoring along.

Bumper is all hooked up and working. (looks ace)

Changed kingpin bearings, and knuckle seals/felts and cleaned and regreased bearings, cv, and freewheeling hubs while I was at it.

Body is now actually bolted to the chassis instead of just resting on it.

Fitted a new steering damper which I had to weld a hoop to as it had a pin.

Started making a adapter to go on the airbox side of the SU as the old elbow I used to use wouldnt work very well as the airbox needs repositioning.

Today I finally found something free to use as wheel arches. Just need to "borrow" it tomorrow. :lol:

Still need some kingpin shims and also one or the stepped bolts that goes in the knuckle seal retainer if anyone can save me a trip to suzuki it would be appreciated.

Will stick some photos up if I get the arches sorted tomorrow.
