Hi Ian, I fair enjoyed your video and thank you for taking the time to make it. I do have one comment on the assembly of the diff tie bars, there should be another two dished washers per side that go between the polly bushes and the diff housing. When I purchased the bush kit for my Elan the the steel dished washers came in the kit. 👍🏻

I have a 1968 +2, interesting that you have a cut out in front of the tank. I’m fairly certain that I have a fibreglass firewall, I’ll check when I have time. Does anyone else have an early car (ie not +2S) & if so do you have the cutout? I assume you are going to replace the nylock nuts once you have the car back on the ground?

Hi, Make sure that the inner front bolt on the wishbones goes in thread first from the rear, the opposite of what you have in the video. Certainly in the little elan this bolt cannot be removed by pulling it forward. Cheers Mark

Ian, I tried to reply to you with a couple of photos showing the washers in place that I was taking about but was unable to attach them. 🙁

Hi George, How about trying to send them by email. My email address is ianjohnson3663@gmail.com

Are those diff bars are the correct side? Mine point level, not down if that makes sense.

Hi Oliver, Yes I think they are on the right side. The pics you've seen where before I finally tightened up the top diff mounts. This pulled the whole diff up quite a bit. I will check however. Ian PS I like you videos keep them coming!
