Bob Evans's Journal

Looking a little less sleek now. That's the diff on the floor next to the car. Having completed the trailing arm stud repair I wanted to replace the T/A pivot bushings so dropped the T/As and the differential to replace the diff axle shaft bearings and oil seals and the pinion bearing and oil seal. Got all that out on the floor last night along with most of the stock SS exhaust system and am currently trying to press out the old bushings and install the new. The plan is to degrease, pressure wash and paint the T/As and reinstall with the new wheel cylinders and SS braided brake lines. The hardest part of the job is getting the old bushings out but TR buddy Steve ('74 TR6, '64 1/2 MGB and '80 RHD Mini) has a jig made up of threaded rod and various large washers, sockets and pieces of pipe. Need to get her back on her rear wheels so I can pull the engine. Also need to get back at it and stop wasting time writing about what I have left to do. :0) Pic attached.
Cheers,
Bob
