Still no joy here. No answers back from Wilkinsons as to the actual external size of their new axles.

Car is in a million bits and whilst waiting for answers so that I can order my bits from USA, I've started cleaning up some of the underbody bits.

The previous owner stated in the car records that all of the control arms were bead blasted and coated back in 2007 when new bushes were fitted.

Doesn't ring true to me as ALL of the control arms have surface rust on them. Sandblaster took it all off and the paint was so thin, I'm sure it was a $2.95 spray can from home depot. Certainly not a decent paint let alone a powder coat.

So having sand blasted them all again, this time they are all getting a proper priming and coating with 2 pack enamel in an alloy colour. I've also pulled off the rear stabiliser bar and I'll have this powdercoated as the spring tension in it wont take kindly to chrome plating or even painting.
