Day Eight (saturday)
now the pressure was falling on me because everything was painted and essentially ready to be fitted.
i had the missus with me today to give a hand with a few bits and the first task was to fit the steering rack from the corolla i broke and scrapped which enables me to have power steering at long last after both the seals failed on its way to the mot pouring all the fluid everywhere.
then i thought it best to collapse the gazebo to make more light and space,
subframes on the floor awaiting assembly with new polybushings
the areas you see i green are areas i didnt apply paint as these are contact surfaces for the rear wheel bearing etc
front ARB rubbed down and painted
with the new steering rack fitted, i assembled the front subframe with the fresh bushings and antiroll bar and new drop links and listed this onto the car, the bolts gave issues but assebling everything with copper slip always makes life easier now and in the future.
so moving on a little bit i had managed to fit the hand brake cables and the exhaust once again, which all went together fine after id put the hand brake cables on the wrong sides whoopsie 
so moving on to later on in the day where i had assembled my:
new shocks
new top mounts
lowering springs (which are for an e11 corolla and not e9 so the rears are wrong annoyingly!
the springs being wrong were not my only my springs were wrong the rear subframe bushs were wrong so i had to put my old one back on temporarily untill i could sort them out which is a bummer but nother to worry about for now.
as you can see the rear end fully assembled now
here you can also see where the rear spring doesnt sit correctly
this is a quick pic which sums up the rear shocks which simply stay down and made bubbles too lol
