Suspension Rebuild

Made some progress on the suspension and chassis.

The axles have been rebuilt with lower ratio crownwheel and pinion. All new bearings, rebuilt calipers. The front axle is from a GU patrol, much stronger but makes getting parts a little more tricky.

The local powdercoating company did my springs as they were a bit large and time consuming for my powder coating system.

Chassis repainted in 2-pack. New bushes for the shocks (repainted in 2-pack).

I also removed the old towbar which was really badly attached to the chassis. Goodness knows how it survived all those years being pulled about while off-road.
