Found a Jimny that I had misplaced. :laugh:
Got buried in a load of tents when I opened the back door!! :ohmy:
Will be carrying on with the clear-out every day after work this coming two weeks.
I might be able to make a start on it then at bloody last!!!

Brakes were feeling a bit spongy so had a good root around. Front driver side caliper sliders are very stiff, one of them needing considerable force to move, so I have treated myself to a brand new one 
Also re-bled the brakes, this time plucking up the courage to undo the rear load valve bleed nipple (have always feared snapping it off as its a bit corroded) and it undid very slowly
Had the bright idea of putting the rear of the J up on ramps to bleed the rear wheels and the load valve, guessing that any air will rise to the highest point. Indeed, my brakes have never felt better so I think there has been a small pocket of air moving around the system that's finally been expelled. With a new caliper, they should be even better
