Thanks. I think. Its not too hard to do, theres just a crap load to take out. If the dash was untouched and original with no added gauges and all the other shite, I would have finished by now.

Here are some shots taken of removing the king pin bearings on the front hubs, plus if you are doing the TB42 E brake upgrade, don't forget you need to transplant the original hub into the disk - I had a moment of freak out until I realised this also needeP6300335.JPGP6300336.JPGd to happen. Its a simple task, undo 6 bolts and ease the hub out of the original disk, then fit to the new, larger diameter disk. @MudRunnerTD, over to you my friend to integrate into your hub build or not!
Also, don't mount your calipers upside down - make sure the bleed nipple is at the top of the caliper, otherwise you will spend the rest of your life trying to bleed the air out of the brakes. I know because I went thru 2 litres of brake fluid before the mistake was recognised.

God I hope I get it back together in time for Licola. I will be a dead man if I don't.

Mark, my GUIV only required the glove box unit to be removed, disconnect water, retaining bolts and core slid out of cradle to the left. Did you run a UV light over the residual fluid on floor to make sure it was not the A/C fluid weeping at the firewall flange joints and coming thru. This was the cause of my liquid on the floor mat (passenger side), ran UV over it and glowed. Guess you pressure tested cooling system to inspect core...Lot of work there mate.

Mark...
We seriously need a selfie of your face when you read that...
Right or wrong doesn't matter... just that instant in time as the brain processes the post should be priceless I reckon.
Maybe even a good theme for the next months photo comp "The look on a persons face when..."
Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

You sure that wasn't the A/C evap you are thinking of. As I have done mine before and that pretty much all I had to do. The heater box is located centre of the dash right above the transmission tunnel.
Edit : See link for GUIV removal. Same as mine.
