And that tells a story. I had a wheel bearing collapse on the drivers rear, whilst doing 60mph on the M6. Unfortunatley we had a 3.5hr wait beside the motorway just to get picked up :-(

The ABS collar is detached or separate to the retaining ring which I havent seen before...



Unfortunatley it has killed the ABS sensor when its been slopping around in there so I will need to source a new one of them. Spare shaft in the garage and the disc brake conversion meant it was fixed in 30 mins. Looking into floating rears now as a way to make this issue easier next time.



Bit of a start on the exhaust as well. Its all tack welded together now then removed to weld fully. I need to order a joining flange for it but its nearly there. Looks pretty good too (if I do say so myself)...

Heatwrapped the stainless 4-2-1 manifold I already had and started building back from there:
















Back to work tomorrow so it will wait until the weekend.
