A fruitful weekend saw most of the running gear make it back onto the van.

Front Steering and suspension all on, including the shiny new Koni shocks:

Rear brakes all re-assembled. These are the shoes and backing plates that came off the van when I started the resto; they cleaned up really nicely and have plenty of use left in them:

And fitted the drums too, ready to go back down onto wheels:

I borrowed a wheel from Wayne in the unit next to me to pull the hubs into the drums and discs. Even putting one wheel on it makes it seem so much more โ€˜van likeโ€™, rather than just a lump of metal:

New bearings pressed in and rear suspension all built up tonight. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

My phony Koni steering damper to match the new shocks, complete with Koni decals.
