Put the crossmember in, the top control arms and the passenger side lower.
That's all for now, back to it in a months time :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

Putting my new wheels in the shed on Saturday night - I was carrying the first one and tripped arse over head because I couldn’t see some shit on the floor - went down hard, smashed my jaw on the tyre when it hit the ground, jarred me thumb because it was still through the centre bore of the rim, hyperextended my left shoulder and bruised the collarbone and broke my knee into 4 bits when it hit the concrete ImageImageImageImage

Ouch 🙁. Sounds like it was a bit hit to the floor. Best take it easy so you can get back on the road. Gather your off work for a bit too.
