1" 70mm body blocks arrived today- much better. And and got some new body mount bolts to go with the new mounts. . . Shiny bits ☺

They're not too bad, probably take half a day i recon. Just gotta watch the rear ones, they're captive in the body and loctited in, if they break free & start spinning need to butcher the floor to get them out. A bit of a pre soak & heat 4 sure to get them out.

Yay no more body work to prep, just need to get the guard done again i scratched. 😕

Also picked up the speedo from patrolapart which they fixed as it started to do the spin up to 180 then go back down randomly thing just before it was off the road. May as well fix it now. . .

Question; seem to remember someone on here doing a thread on adjusting the reading by turning a variable resistor on the speedo somewhere, just wondering if this will work. . . Don't want to bugger it without knowing what I'm doing. . .

@mudnut, is this something you would know about?

I remember the thread but thought it only fixed the speedo being out not being erratic .

They prolly replaced the crystal as it is a known problem, that the components legs corrode.
