I must be extremely lucky with my 4th gen - every nut & bolt has always come
off no probs

Only hassle was a rusted split-pin.

Been a while from I've been on here, from one bit of bad news to another meant good aul smokey has been left sitting for the past rake of months, unloved.

Thankfully though, its getting back on track.
Picking up a 2ws subframe from a local guy along with a new bonnet and wing.

Have these sitting waiting to get painted too

Touched lucky with the fitment so now I dont need to do a hub swap!
