Droped the hydraulic wheelchair lift and Manuel pump off on my own, no jack's or stands. Just lots of hydraulic oil and plenty swearing.

Just popped out an injector to get the part number off it and then replaced the rubber seals on the leak off clip things because I messed one up after my last leak off test and the new couldn't find the replacements that I had bought :roll:

Ground back some rust that had been growing on the rear edge of the front wheel arches. Then rust converter and zinc paint will hopefully stop it coming back.

Was pretty happy with the result. Used a flap disk on the angle grinder, and there was plenty of metal left after I ground it back to shiny steel.

Just need to find the right white paint now. Why are they all slightly different.
