Going more backwards at the moment but all for a good cause.

So I need to replace my fuel line and vapour separator to canister line and the only way I could see to do it properly was to remove the whole diff for access.

There are a lot of things I won't be doing to the car until after licencing as I don't want to waste time and money if it is not possible with the issues I have with it's identity, but the pipework really need to be addressed.

I can now easily tidy up the paint on the diff and trailing arms as well.

Once again the hoist made the job very easy.

 

Oh, also I have attached a picture showing what looks like an original screw in my RHS top trailing arm. What might this be for please?

I have a vague memory of seeing that screw years ago. Can't remember what it was for, but I think it held a clip to hold something in place like a cable or pipe. Possibly for a bucket seat UC Torana disc brake handbrake cable support? Or something like that.

It holds like a P clamp for the rubber brake hose before it goes to the T piece for the hard line across the diff housing.

I think there was a P clip or similar for the flexible brake hose on one of the upper trailing arms.

Thanks Brad,

for measurements.

The clutch pedal is not perfect but a lot better.
