Hello to UNCLE HO
Damn! An underhead overhang...that sounds like a vital component...I'll have to get it down to the mechanic ASAP. No wait...paint shop first...might as well get the green resprayed before installing it...:pQuote:

I've hardly driven my 'normal' car since I picked up the landy.
Yes, I feel like a kid with a new [Tonka] toy....:arms:
Damn, I thought a genuine Landy grease gun was a 20Ltr drum. :tease:
Cheers.
I've got one of them also in my original kit but the funny thing is from memory my 88 (1976 build) never had any grease nipples anywhere on it. Certainly weren't any on the original steering joints.

What about the propellor shafts?Quote:

Correct there is one on one of the propshafts. Brake pivot bush is probably like yours with just a plug. Think if I get it back together there will be a few extra nipples going on.
