Jeez mate thats no good at all...

G'day All, As usual on my days off it rains, well whats new!!, I did manage to fit a couple of items yesterday afternoon in an effort to take my mind off the 110's problems, I managed to get these in before dark

and a quick to Maitland this morning early (0715hrs) to get a clutch M/cyl kit and fit it to the pendant block, it is not fitted due to the wet weather

note it has been fitted with temp/bolts, paint wasn't dry.
The rain has been hanging around all day heavy, light, showers n heavy again, makes it impossible to uncover this and do anything

even the Poodle Patrol is reluctant to come out, ATM they are huddled around the gas heater in the back room,.

I'm pleased I got these 4 out last weekend and gave them a touch up etc,


because I'm working a full week this week, that would have only left me 2 days to do all of them, anyway hopefully the weather will be kind to me next weekend, anyway cheers Dennis
ps many thanks for the fingers XXXX'd thoughts for my 110, all I know at present is that it is inside the garage in Dungog,,.

G'day All, What a frustrating day it has been, I wasn't happy with the way the steering column came through the bulkhead, it was closer to the RHS of the hole as looking at it from the drivers (freddy flinstone) position.
So I set about removing the bulkhead supp/bracket off the old B/head cleaned it up painted it etc, as the one on the vehicle appeared as though it had a bend in it, anyway whether it did or didn't I dunno!!!!.
I measured the gap at the doors before I loosened any bolts etc, wrote the number down on the concrete for good measure, then set about taking the brake pendant pedal off, then the steering box (for the first time LOL), took everything off that I thought I needed too, then set about putting it all back into place, well if I did this once, I did it heaps if times

in the next picture you can see the b/head bracket that I took off, it's leaning against the wheel

the masking tape was too hold 2 flat washers to each bolting plate x 2 for the stiffening bracket that holds the steering box, as I don't have arms like a Octopus LOL, anyway this is how it looked after quite a few hours of mucking around, time beat me, and it was dark before I knew it

one thing I have learned over 40 years of owning Land Rovers, that 'Spiders' have really good taste in Stately homes

so if your Land Rover hasn't got 'LRS' well what more can I say, anyway hopefully tomorrow after work I might get to do all the nutz n bolts up for keeps, cheers Dennis
