hi Dennis,
i was just about to ask what and where did you get the paint for your eng, but the pic above Answers my question! Ford Gray in VHT thanks, Chris

G'day All, Well the run of s**t luck continues (Ron 's the name ), it took me a few hours to refit the T/case and associated bits, walked it under the 110, slung a chain around it, lifted it up into place, all seemed to be going well, well it wasn't, the splines (invalid) on the spigot, didn't line up with the driven plate, jammed it ++, G/box etc back on floor clutch etc off, repairs to driven plate have another go tomorrow, this time I will wait for assistance LOL anyway cheers Dennis

G'day All, anyone want a cheap 110?? cheers Dennis
no joy today G/box still sitting on ground,,.

Yes Please Dennis, but define cheap. I have a lovely expensively rebuilt gearbox to go in it, pity the rest of my vehicle hasn't been cared for the same as yours

PS If I had a vehicle operational i'd offer to come up and lend a hand but couldn't do that for a week or more

Friday morning is the earliest I can get there Dennis.

G'day All, I separated the T/case off the G/box, fitted the G/box (took approx 20 mins) T/case took about the same time, all up about 1 1/2 hours after lunch today, it's now sitting on it's mounts, a bit more time on it through the week should see it just about done, although I will have to wait for a part from the UK, top of the box some sort of nylon bush supports the G/stick, $103.00 +GST in Oz, 2.98 pounds in the UK (approx $8.00au) where would you buy it from, anyway cheers Dennis
ps sale is now off, no bids made on cheap 110

Dennis don't forget that the Bell-housing faces the engine

At least you're not suffering weld flash burns... Like moire.

Go easy. You will make Corowa.
