Time to do my rear wings as they should be done! 23+ years ago I fitted the rear wings filling in up to the wing beads and painting over the join it has always niggled me I hadn't done it correctly! It was easier to do that way at the time So the wings were removed new beading and DumDum between all three parts, this meant repainting the body and wings plus coach lines a lot of work but it's done as it should have been done in the first place That done it was time for a bit of maintenance this meant removing all the suspension on the DS to fit new Link Bar bushes and Radius Arm bush with OEM ones the ones fitted were from a well known supplier! I also stripped the top and bottom Swivel Joints for a check they were as good as new so repacked with new grease and adjusted on both sides, the PS bushes were Oem and in good condition. New rebound stop pads were fitted both sides as I had them!! Rear Brakes etc next along with a fluid change I started out on a 12 week stay at home so what's next?
