So not been able to work on it for a long while due to work commitments..... New tank & pickup as it was leaking like a sieve with any more than a gallon or so of diesel. New fuel pump although the old one seemed OK, new fuel filter and air filter refurbished as it has worn a hole in the bottom...

Managed to sort this. One of the hubs was gummed up with old grease and not engaging even though it was in the locked position. Cleaned, reassembled and all working now. May replace then with normal flanges as they don't look in the best condition.

Both FW Hubs appear to be locked, but I'm going to take them off today and see if they're damaged or not engaging when locked. I've not had the car long but suspect the previous owner has been messing about with the passenger side one as two of the nuts were about half way out. It also had a...

Just thought I'd say hello! Recently bought a 1967 series 2A 109 station wagon as a rolling restoration project. It has been rebuilt in the past with some series 3 additions including bulkhead and engine. I'm fairly mechanically minded having owned a Discovery 2, and Discovery 3 but never...
