Re: WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY!Went to see Robbie today, so he could have a look at the rear diff on Beasty. (noticed some vibration when accelerating and cornering at the same time) Got some good news....Beasty has a Limited Slip Diff. That was a stroke of luck.
Might as well also renew all the brakes and rear shocks whilst we're on. WATCH THIS SPACE. Jim and Phoenix

Re: WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY!Yesterday Fudge, Fogman, and myself serviced the rear brakes to sort out the failure on the MOT. Turned out the offside upper slider bolt had siezed. Knocked it out and cleaned it all up. Slapped on the obligatory lube and now it seems to be working fine. Then spent a hour adjusting the handbrake. Yes 1 hour and three people to adjust the handbrake. Most stupidest desing ever.
Fixed the rear fog light by kicking it. Then sometime later went to try it again and it stopped woking again. Kicked it again but no joy. Had to take it apart. Put some new terminals on it and cleaned the gack and rust off them. All seems fine once more. That should hopefully get me a green ticket Tuesday. Today I managed to get some more bits of interior trim to aid my mission to get her back to her former glory. Full set of door cards, associated swiitches, handles, and covers. All for a tenner. Anyways I slapped in my rear washer bottle cover and felt chuffed. As for the rest will be useful as spares. Only a small thing but makes me happy ![]() ![]() My members ride For Banshee the Trooper : viewtopic.php?f=46&t=34626 My members ride for Leeloo the Lotus Edition viewtopic.php?f=46&t=60154 Deceased My members ride for Brenda the Bighorn : viewtopic.php?f=46&t=54771

Re: WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY!Dean, I'm sure Horses45 and Bobby would be happy to lend you a hand. Try shooting them a PM. I know Horses lives not far from you. Might be worth a try.
