Post subject:  Chassis build up - guide?

Hi all, very soon I'm going to be building up my restored chassis ready to put the body tub back on. I think I have all the bits needed and a long weekend set aside. The only thing is, I took it apart about 3 years ago and I've forgotten how it all went.. :roll:

Is there such a thing as a guide with photos anywhere? I've been digging online but found nothing of much use.

Thanks!

This one?

Seems to have become rather pricey, although it does pop up on Ebay second hand every now and again.

I've heard it's not a good guide as it's full of mistakes.

Cheers guys, I'm pretty sure I can figure it out but a memory jog would be useful.. I'm amazed there's not a decent guide online. I might take notes and write one if it would help people out.

Haynes manuals are 10 a penny secondhand. Would be better than nothing if you've not got one.

Joolz that's a very good point. I've got a few different manuals.

Hi Sean, hopefully last weekend of the month if all the bits arrive in time. I'm living in Edinburgh nowadays! I think Martin moved to the wild west but any help would be useful, though I might need to buy a kettle for my workshop.
