Guest Seedy Al Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Well just spent a good part of the evening fucking around on this thing and not getting very far haha Bit of a let down given yesterdays progress. After lot of fucking around i managed to run new wires for the front running lights, only to find that they are going to be earthed through the body, like the ones i just replaced were, which is not what i was going for. However, they will still work. Also pulled one of the wheels off to pack and adjust the wheel bearins which seem sweet! but now I cant get the wheel back on, as its to factory slammed, so will need to deflate tyre or something. Also tried to run the new wiring through the chassis frame as per it was. i for some reason did the stpuid thing and pulled the old wires out without attaching the new wires to pull through it with. So spent forever try to get it down th rail, to no avail. will have to talk to one of the elctrical guys at work to borrow a fiber glass running thingy. So yeah, made some progress, but not much as i would have likes haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Seedy Al Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Sweet! So today was much better than yesterday managed to run the main loom down the rail so that is all nice. and joined all the wires up together so just need some bulbs and a couple of terminals to earth out the tail lights, and boom, pretty much wired Also deflated the wheel and got that back on, so just need to check the bearings on the other side, and i think it might be ready to attempt for a wof. also one of the windows was super cracked, been that way since i bought it, bitch who sold it said there were no cracked windows, and i regret not mentioning it at the time to knock the price down a bit. So now have the peices in my car, and will take it to the guys at metro glass who we do work for anyway, and see if i can get a deal on getting another cut. good old progress, my fav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EURON8 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Did the original wiring run up through the wooden frame and was tied off at points making it impossible to tie new wire and pull it through?? We took the whole rear section off to run new wires and discovered this annoying practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
