So busy night tonight with next weekend looming and a trailer to finish and a day job[emoji19]
I have the Saxo back on the ground.
Everything went back together quite nice to be fair only had to make alterations to the lower brace now it's a little low but it will do for now but all and all it should be a good job.

Ha ha cheers,I went for a swift spin down the road and it feels solid but tracking will have to be done as there has been some major adjustments made there.
Just in form the garage clean out,2 hours on the floor alone can't face the work bench tonight[emoji27]

At the moment it's standing me around 750 euro all in I'd say I'll still need to spend 100 to finish.
It suited me to do it this as I could spend a little as I get a little and.
I seen that single axel!was it on done deal?
My only gripe with single axel if you get one flat or blow out your in bother[emoji16]
But other that that they would be a nice little trailer to pull[emoji106]

I can now load with the bumper on and I don't need to get out the boot anymore[emoji106]

Cheers man it's grand because I done it bit by bit it feels like it cost near noting so it's a good way to do it if you have a bit of time and some basic tools.
It's lovely work very interesting I'd say it's very rewarding if you had s good welder and a large workshop,I'm a little tight gor space at the moment with this years turf in[emoji19]
But the next build thread will be race car workshop[emoji1][emoji1][emoji106][emoji106]
