You wont believe me, I thought it would look weird...................I was just discussing this with my wife and showing her the photos and it struck me I made a mistake by asking to put the white lettering inside, the problem I have is not swapping it around but having to remove the balance...

Well.........thanx for that I was worried you guys are just keeping to yourself, I don't mind any comments/ critic as long as you don't get personal...... So today is the proof of the puddin.......... ...............................so here goes hope you guys like it...

Yes bull****, there is air in the system, I recon the brakes was not power bled the proper way, its not essential to power bleed but its a very good thing to do. Take it back so he could do the job properly.

Welcome to the RRC world.................where we are superior.....lol

The powder coater is extremely nice to me, otherwise I think I would have not done it. Then I must add not everything is powder coated, the coolant expansion tank, the wheel hubs, the backing plates(not fitted yet), the swivel hubs, the wheel hub end caps are all painted by your truly. You...

Thanx mate................ Look what I got.............................. and I eventually got the pannard rod fitted................ Tomorrow it will be tyres fit and fit them to the vehicle......cant wait.......

This all I could do today.........new pitman arm ball joint kit and the last steering component......

What do you mean servo....the vacuum unit, then yes if it is leaking the pedal will be hard. You dont mention that you fitted a o- ring on the master, that seals the vacuum unit so it can assist in braking.

Soooooo got the end caps on now the diff and steering gear look good........ ............the rims before powder coating............... the tyres are waiting.........

I would like to know from anybody that has done this, and the correct way to do this. The cv's and wheel bearings run in diff oil.......but we all know they leak and this is not good for the environment and other road users as they can slip/skid off the road. I was thinking of greasing up...

Yes they are good, my first in-stink was the same than yours.......but for some reason I red the fitting instructions.....how bezaar I just about never read any instructions...lol

Yes bolt off bolt on, even the wiring was bolt off bolt on, what not cheap, here in OZ they want $220 for the same thing plus exchange, in UK you should pay less because you can give your old alt as exchange unit. You can with a few modifications fit a VW 120Amp alternator thats a Bosch unit...

This may be disappointing to you as I have learnt that most people here don't like Britparts. It's a 85Amp and you are right, bolt off the old bolt on the new and I swapped the two pulleys just to keep the speed correct. Its a Britpart. I have been searching for a big alternator and this was the...

Seems like I am boring with what I am doing........but I don't care I am having fun...... Today I was a bit productive. Removed swivels, renewed half shaft seals, tapped all bolt holes, renewed swivel bearings, renewed wheel bearings, fitted some of the new steering parts and the steering...

I gather that you said short wheel base series2. Sorry don't get the cell phone talk everyday. You don't mention that you adjusted the brake shoes. If you can pump the brakes and the pedal comes up and hold it....like you said you need to adjust the shoes.

So sorry, it seems the motor is running fine then.

Got some time today to do a little bit of work...........😛 Eventually I got the pulley for the alternator. Getting there slowly........lol

I was under the impression there is composite head gaskets specially for the 3.5 or is Bearmach just fuc&@? with me? Check their latest catalog.

Well not much going on...........I have eventually made the new radiator brackets, I used 1.2mm stainless steel and all hand crafted..........so excuse the imperfections this is my first attempt at manufacturing things. My next bracket is the receiver/drier bracket, I just need to figure how to...
