Fixed a few nice easy fixes that should have been done aaaaaages ago , so treated bus to some new shocks , a bit stiffer than what I usually have on it , but should be less bouncy up front so thanks to Type 2 Detectives for sorting these for next day . Even treated the bus to its bellyache going back on and a sprinkle of lanoguard snake oil . Just opposite spindle set to strip and rebuild grease . Saftey crocs worn at all times

Well that went off fast , tracking last week , thought grease up kingpins, noticed a bit of rubbing going on , so all out , 1 x link pin decided to move , 1 x trailing arm later (handy me stocking brand spanking new ones) 1 x clean and degrease parts and check bearings etc 2 x grease tubes with the hope that maybe half of one got into pins and beam .
Drives alot nicer now

Setting up the Steering on these stupid lowered things can be a bit tricky , worse when chassis is not notched . But 1 cleaned out garage pit , 1 artery severed and doing 10000 steps getting up and down into the pit with various test drives it seems alot better now .
Oh and had an oil and filter change because filter had perished .
