    Carby

    Hi all
    The carby was in need of a few repairs and gaskets.
    Many hours of cleaning with pop
    so we could reassemble it without a drama.
    All the best

    Well done Kc

    How did the Bay to Birdwood event go - any pictures and was there many Land Rovers.

    I am flying home tomorrow - wether pending the winds on site - the BOM is forecasting wind gust up to 120km/h.....rain and thunderstorms.

    the carby looks like it came up a treat!
    if you dont mind me asking where abouts did you get a kit or did you remake the gaskets yourself?

    Brakes

    Hi All
    The Brakes needed redoing which included all new rubbers for the master and wheel cylinders,
    a flexible brake pipe, a new master cylinder piston and all new brakes shoes.
    We had to be very careful with the rear wheel cylinders as they
    were covered in asbestos dust from the old shoes. (See Photo)
    here are a couple photos of before the clean up
    Sorry No After Photos.
    We also replaced the front wheel bearings.
    Thanks to Pop for the work he put in.
    All the best
