Tidied the 'workshop',



Tyres, two are just about usable but 2 are borderline illegal. I messaged the guy this morning, these tyres may have been new but that was before he went drifting with them! These two are the 'usable' ones, some slices and chunks of tread missing, but at least there is some tread! They still have the little rubber bobbles so probably are newish, just abused.



These two are pretty much on the wear indicators and have bald inner edges. Not great!



I'm hoping to hear from Bigg red about the calipers today, either way I can get the handbrake stuff back on tomorrow if I can rememer how it all goes!

Should I torque up the rear end (axle, shock absorbers etc) with load on these components? Either with wheels on the ground or axle stands under the axle? There are axle stands on the body jacking points just now so no load.

Treated myself to a Teng set of 3/8" and 1/2" torque wrenches, they came in a box and everything
