    BTW Dan, I noticed a stray "r" in that "Arhh"... does this mean we're coming up to international "talk like a pirate" day?

    Some big progress this weekend - half axles back in - all 4 wheels now have the correct wheel cylinders, new springs all around - so, all wheels now have operational drum brakes all ready to go, new flex brake lines fitted, brake master cylinder put back together and installed, new radiator hose fitted, rear diff full of gear oil....

    Just need to bleed the brakes and set the snail cams. Killer and I tried to bleed the brakes - no fluid coming through to wheel cylinders. Pulled the input line to BMC off - fluid going in. Took output line off BMC - fluid going out after a few pumps of the brake pedal. Put both lines back - same result - no bleed happen' at the wheel cylinders

    Luckily - Glen rang me before I rolled it (and myself) off a cliff, to advise that the BMC will need to be singularly bled first - probably a 2 man job - hopefully get it done next Friday - so lil' old Matilda is very close now...

    Thanks for your help this weekend, Mick - you da Man!

    Yes - if someone can help me bleed the Brake Master cylinder and lines - Killer and I tried to get the brakes bled last weekend, but apparently I need to bleed the BMC separately first. Need help.

    I hope so - I'm having Friday off work so if anyone is available to help with the above - yes - Matilda should then be on the road. I did discuss this with Glen - but I don't know when he is off to NSW.
