    So probably won't do anything until Monday now, I've got the ****s with it all...

    Now now Gav...breath in deep and out....and all will be better

    I'm sure some men have taking up drinking for less than bleeding the brakes of a Series LR or 101...

    I can tell you all about bleeding brakes (if you want to break the booster).

    Almost, but not quite.. With the AC compressor installed the alternator ends up over the others side.

    I did drag most of these parts out today, but again I was foiled as I can't find the pulley for the water pump...

    It's in my garage somewhere - saying that, there would be a better chance of finding a lost tribe in Borneo than finding something in my garage at the moment.... Another job in the to do list....

    Well, with a few more shops open now, I got hold of the steel I needed to get the air tank mounted. Ended up working out a bracket that will bolt to the back of the front pintle hook on the cross member. Won't have to drill any extra holes in the chassis.

    Pics tomorrow when it is all welded up and painted. Only got as far as tacking everything together. I have welded 2 bands around the tank for strength and the main bracket is welded to those. All up, very strong and won't stress any welds on the tank, so it should last fine. Pressure switch, and air outlet are all mounted on the tank, so only have to run 1 line to it from the compressor. Just have to remove the grill to plug the air line into it, and for those that own a 101 they know how easy that is.

    Now to find a 12 volt solenoid and a truck horn...

    Hmm - what about these...

    904 Train Horn 4 Trumpet - 159db

    Not a true train horn like Sitec's, but I bet you would still notice it...

    There's always the K3 Train horn option.... 3 bells instead of 5, just as loud, they will fit between the chassis rails, and the price is a little better.... If you're thinking of getting a set, make sure your air tank has a 1/2" bore I.d air outlet!!!
