Dashboard continued


I couldn't be arsed to glue some wood to the bottom edge of the dash and shape it to the 19mm radius so instead i padded it with some foam, and covered it - non rigid material.........







Dashboard

Started work on the dash today just need to glue something to the bottom to give the 19mm radius for sva test - "The instrument panel lower edge within the specified zone must be rounded to a radius of not less than 19mm (5mm if covered with a non-rigid material)." - from sva manual.

Then cover it......

Torque settings

Torque settings for Suspension

Caliper bracket to upright: 45-50 ft/lbs

Disc to the Hub: 30-34 ft/lbs

Hub Nut: Pack grease into bearing. Torque this nut up to 27 ft/lbs of torque and check for full and free rotation of the hub, it should be quite difficult to turn at this point. Now slacken the nut off by 90 degrees. This gives the hub endfloat the required 0.001-0.005 inches of movement.
