My mondays work went well.. Pulled the gear box apart at work.
The nut on the out put shaft was a bitch to get off. Had to machine a 30mm socket down to clear the box.

So my updates are
boxed the lower control arms up.
fitted the new head lights. changed my old hand brake for the one jason had but i used my lever and will use my master on it

Needed to make a bush for my lever to the shaft on the hand brake

I ran this setup before on another project and it worked very well just with the stock water pump.. but I probably would have fitted an extra/ electric pump if id had the budget just incase.

this is going to be a mad car :)
