Never mind. I have had my glass of port I am off to bed.:angel:
Well ! After having you fellows scratching your hair all day and sometimes both of your hairs, I will relent and put you all out of your misery.
It's to do with the axle check straps and the position of the rear springs, the shields are reversed on a long wheel base because of the springs being out side of the chassis and the check straps are then inside the springs.
Inc as he said has a short wheel base 88" and the check straps are outside the springs.
I removed the right hand side shield as per instructions, from a long wheel base 109" axle housing!
You can go now and I'll let you rip your hair out ---- both of them. :D
You realise we don't enjoy this. Right? Left? Wrong?
Sorry !! [bigsad]Quote:

There must be other instances of the incorrect handed item ending up causing grief, Is there any other that people know of ?
.
on series 2 and later it seems that whats left on a lwb is right on a swb :p

Trotted over to the collection yesterday and looked at the correct right hand shield that's on the left side, so it is the right one for you even if it is on the left of the donor LWB. :confused:
It's condition is about the same as the first right one, ---- sorry ! the incorrect shield I first sent up. :wasntme:
If your happy with the condition of the last one I sent, I can get this one under way for you.

Arthur,
I've just removed one from a Series III and fitted one from another Series III and the holes for the brake pipe clamps are in a different positions. So there seems to be right for right and right for left and also different hole positions.
The first one was on a SWB but it had a lot of LWB parts fitted (brakes etc.). There are 2 larger holes in the plate and two smaller holes on the same centreline for the brake pipe clamps. The other one was from a diesel SWB but the hole for the brake pipe clips were closer to the top of the plate.
So that I don't lose out on a future concourse prize, which is the correct one ?
