I won't lie, I have a weird feeling I've not assembled this in the right order. Does the bearing and nut go on first, then the top mount rubber or does the bearing and not go on after the top mount? Super confused as Ford diagram says the latter..
 
Does this help at all? I know it's rear but?

Being hyper critical :oops: in my opinion the only thing letting the engine bay down are the power steering and brake fluid bottles as they are a bit grubby. I know I am going to be shot down in flames as this car is truly stunning and something I can only dream of obtaining but it just jumped out of the pictures at me as everything else is immaculate.
I put my tanks in the dishwasher and they came out pretty good......glad my wife won’t ever read this!!! :p

I completely agree now that I look at it! I'll see if I can do something about it, shouldn't be too hard. Maybe bathe it in bleach or something.
 
Odd, I tested your permissions and could still see all of the pictures. What kind of device do you use?

I can see them now when I click on them, thanks mate, will be handy for when I put them in fully 😊

Got a lot done last night. Fitted the clip on the clutch master, got the new j and r driveshafts in, wheel arch liners in with fresh bolts and also made a good start on the wiring!

I'll do the brake fluid reservoir soon :)
 
Burton carries a line of polished reservoir caps that might really bring things to the next level in there if your into the polished look.
Admittedly, they are a little pricy.

Hoses are in. Honestly, what do you guys think of them? They are definitely darker than I was expecting.

I sort of think the air hose should be a different color than the coolant hoses

I completely agree. What colour are we thinking? I'm between Orange, Purple and Pink..
