Although still waiting on parts, I had enough to start the rebuild.
Nothing better than starting with a fresh new chassis... Big thanks to @Badkad for selling me one at a good price.
As the bumpers were a little worst for ware, I decided to take the opportunity to switch to the Tbone front, rear and mud guards. As always, delighted with the quality and fitment on the tbones, can't belive no one stocks these in the UK.
It looks like the front suffered a little previously, the front skid was no existed and front screw heads were nearly shaved away. Also front hinge pin holder was in a rough way, so swapped out for a new one plus new 12.9 screws.
Front bulkhead, arms and cvd's assessmbled to chassis.
Apart from striping shocks not much else I can do until parts show up next week.
