De Dion tube – 6th March 2011

Having checked out various other build diaries & the Lotus 7 club site, & slept on it, I think the solution might be to jack up & support the diff from underneath, or else use an engine hoist to support from above. This would avoid distortion of the upper mounting rubber bushes & should make the lower mounting bolts much easier to install. Didn’t get time to try this theory out today but did get the brake pipes fitted to the de Dion tube & the rear brake callipers assembled with pads in place.
