Update:

Well had day off work today, got alot done although i had few problems which i will explain next to the pictures..... But good news its alive and breathing

Lots new bits, Cambelt cover reacted to the paint. pick it up on tuesday




Output shaft seal fitted:



The "Special" tool i used to fit them:



Fitted Gearbox sump gasket:



Time for a clean:




Got these but was able to fit them as i'm waiting on the T-Part at the top to bring the Nut higher, as it doesn't fit inside. (Hard to explain)



Doing the N/S Inner CV joint as its was damaged in the crash...




Also replaced my O/S Outter boot as it was about to split....

Fitted all the Arms Up and fitted ARB Spacers



Rocker + Leads





Started him up, ran first time was going well unit i found that in the crash it split my centre box on the joint at the back Time for the trusty welder



Job Done

One of how i used standard top hose with little "trimming"



And Final Picture of Genuine Cambelt + Rollers



Still got alot to do but i will be on it again in the morning hopefully be driving tomorrow evening.... well thats the plan
