Reassembling...
The Big Reassembly after the paint job!
Putting back the bumpers has been quite the ordeal, the "export" renforcements kept fitting wrong...😉
The rear lights required lots of patience as well to find the original place...
In short, after a few hours spent struggling with the spare parts, Elvira is back on the road with its lights, bumpers, ID Plate (made by Etablissement Maillefaud in Paris, just a free ad for their fantastic work)...
But I kept the nose a few centimeters lower that the back, to give some rake, just because I prefer this look! 😉
Here we go, I already removed the wheel, shock absorber, the transmission/brake drum assembly...
In 3 steps, how-to-higher-a-suspension :
- We take apart the plate hiding the torsion bar (4 very tighten bolts)
- Here we see the torsion bar and its grooves : I need to remove the suspension plate without moving the torsion bar...
- And voila! The only thing left I've got to do is reassembling, shifting by 1 groove up! (you can see on this picture the torsion bar in its tube)
