My Blue Pearl

Hi All
Been a busy summer with my Blue Pearl 6000km on the must sweat
Swedish summer roads that I can remember :woohoo: :drive: . And I been
around for some time thats forsure.

First thing on my bucket list was to fix the Blue Pearl
a proper Winter Garage. This is what we ended up with.

A visit to the MOT show´d that we had a exesive play
in the left lower ball joint , so now I will have to try out
you´r how to fix it . Did a slow start this afternoon will take
a day or two to soake in the DWF from ? Castrol offcourse
I bet you couldn´t guess that right? :lol:

nice well lit workshop

Heck I am envious of the workshop ............................... I have to work on the gravel drive .

Nice setup / garage.

I see some trophies too.

Spill the beans

Lets play through the keyhole..........we know your bjorn..................do you work for castrol?

:welcome2:

When I'm a old codger I aspire to have the same garage as this it looks ace.

Hi All
LOL no I don´t work for Castrol and those Trophies are some
old R/C Cars from way back. Found them going through a lot off
old stuff this Summer when I renovate the garage to a Proper MG
garage for the Blue Pearl.
Not long ago it looked like hell over here. :bang:
So enjoy three months work in a couple off pictures,

Well enough about the garage, after a good read through on
how to go about the Lower ball joint.. I took some left over from the
renovation and made a simple jig for the front hub. Not to stress the
brake hose or the ABS sensor cable.


When I had it off the lower/upper ball joints.
That sure took a while to get the lower off though. :rant: :rant:


Primed and ready for the bolts.

I didn´t drilled my rivets trough just a 15-20 mm down
made it a good jig for the punch? Not sure its the right word for it

So last night I got the car down for a quick test drive it feelt ok,
and a little more relaxed going straight down the road from what I´m used to. :drive:
MOT today approved so now we´r ready for next spring!
