    Things are starting to move again, which is awkward when I'll have no axles in the morning
    Decided I better make some kind of chassis dolley trolley thing to keep it moveable. 50mm box and a tape measure to the rescue

    We had a few odd wheels about so kind of worked around them .

    Keeping it simple , I thought simply measure the body mount positions and support the chassis with this frame. How hard can it be
    The boy's got a new welder, so I'm not allowed anywhere near it , lol, shame

    That's the wheel plates on, now turn it over and weld on the nut caps.

    Spin it over again and bolt the wheels on, oh, wait, bugger, that's on wrong


    Never mind, a quick cut, grind and reweld the plates on the right way round
    Better

    Then the rather awkward task of wrapping the chassis over the dolley
    Got there in the end though, as I dropped a bollock on my sums the rear needed a quick cut n shut again, oops.

    So tomorrow these axles are off on a pallet to Malta , as you do . Then I get to start bracing my Y61 axles
    Onwards.
    Y60 Patrol 4.2 d SWB in puke green
    2" body lift, 2" pedders suspension lift, 35" Simex muds on excel 16" alloys, needs a turbo :/
