    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    Last time I was in scotland I came out from my cottage in the morning and couldnt drive my rangie. I had to use low range to drive away because the the night before, my warm tyres had melted into the ice and then re froze! It was a very lumpy ride until the ice and tyres had defrosted! Have fun.

    It would help LOTS if you said where you worked, what pub we are talking about and what day and time you are proposing. A couple of quid per head sounds very cheap. Is this going to be a regular thing? FYI. First wednesday of the month there is a pub meet just north from Dunstable.

    Ref steering problem. Lets assume you have checked the PAS fluid and all is well. Low fluid and air in the system will give you a serious "groaning" which is easily recognisable. Without inspecting the vehicle I can give you an educated guess/shot in the dark regarding the stiff/notchy...

    That ruling might be a lot more important than we think right now. If the fact mechanical propelled vehicles historic right to drive it is the main reason for keeping it open, it might be good for the green lane situation. The only down side is the authorities have the option to TRO the lane...

    If your engine has been built to factory standard both your bell housing and timing cover should become water tight when fitted with the drain plugs. Bell housing, starter motor and clutch slave cylinder should even have some Hylomar Blue as a sealant around it. If you have modified it in any...

    I finally got round to fitting my recon front axle. New swivels and brakes with ashcroft shafts, 110 CVs and a Torsen T1 type diff. If nothing else I have stopped the high speed wandering and poor braking. Quite how effective the diff will be, remains to be seen. I might have to try out...

    I think you must have some genuine ORIGINAL 11B rims which were an additional 1/2 inch offset. Shhh! Dont tell the rivet counters. If they find out what you're doing to them they will hunt you down and call you names!!! I think these new rims are sold as acceptable replacements for the...
