Scania 142 project shh part 6

So this episode we have the other chassis that we are going to build on. The springs that i wanted to use aren’t any good as they are for a rigid so they are longer. So we decided to send the other ones away and get them re-made.
I went out and bought a modern low fifth wheel with a friction plate.
We took the old chassis off and put the new chassis onto the axles so that we can see if everything is all lined up ok.
