Fitted diff guard to rear.  Only took about 45 minutes including some "reluctant" bolts so sitting back enjoying a glass of wine in sun.  Front is the next plan....  Alan.

Well replacement leaf springs arrived today so got stuck in and have got one change so far and can't see much difference from before , me thinks mot inspector has made a bad call but will carry on and do them no harm done and will service the others I keep them greased up as spare in case in need them in future just need the vehicle engine mounts to arrive to complete all the repairs they said it failed on done and we will see what they have to say then anyways big brother s@@t is on so laters
