    Now to start putting it all back together. With the help of my trusty neighbour we lifted the new bar into position. I then set about bolting it up and lining it up. It's a couple of mm higher on th drivers side but you can't really notice it.







    Stopped for the night as we had a BBQ next door. Many beers were consumed and it was a bit of a late start on Sunday to finish it off 8-)

    Greased up the bearing, whacked them in, attached the strut and the swing arm was on



    I got the auto opening mechanism, took a few minutes to adjust it all up but it works a treat

    Wired up the lights (what a PITA) put the spare back on and finished... Well nearly, never got around to putting the mudflaps back on. Job for later





    What's not so hot?
    - The bracket on the back door is not painted and is easily seen, so that's a job for later.
    - The wheel holder (the bit with the wheel studs in it) was not painted, so I painted this, otherwise there would be a big gold section showing through the centre of the wheel.
    - There's no hole in this piece to allow you to put some type of lock on the lock the spare wheel up.
    - The dust cap on the stub axel that supports the swing arm is not painted, again a job for later.

    Other than this I'm very impressed with the bar.
