Well, the deed is done!! Whoever suggested that 4 people can lift it is having a laugh Well, 4 can, just and we did just to see. But it's very unnerving and is much easier with an engine crane at one end!

Well done !

The chassis looks good from here.

Are those RT suspension units ?

Yours seems to have more silencers than mine.

Thankyou

Yup, RT springs+shocks, fitted by me a year or two ago

The exhaust is a stainless one, supplied+fitted by RT shortly before I bought her.

The chassis does seem quite solid. I've already done one outrigger a while back, but the other is definitely in line for replacement. The plates are shot and there's a few holes in the tube, though much better than the other one. Other than that, it does seem mainly good, there's a couple of suspect areas/tubes. I'm going to sandblast it, so that should show up any dubious bits.

cheers
Dave

I'm taking a load of photos of it before anything else is removed so I know what I've done, don't want to end up with too many spares
