Putting us to shame again

Looks like excellent fun - soon as i own something that works I'm in for a trip

Any sign of the Trekky gear yet

Yeah, finally turned up at my mates garage......aint seen it yet, but I believe it needs drums, and a nose cone......got a spare cone, just got to source some drums.....I think 60-63 split bus ones fit, and possibly type 3's......

Give us a shout......that mud pit could be fun, specially as it aint rained for ages, so what it'll be like in winter
Not so good this time of year if you dont like bugs tho..........buggys full of em at the minute.....

While I'm here, I reckon I still need to soften the front up, bouncing all over the place....wether fitting my nice heavy bumper/light bar might help, I'll have to see.

Now fitted.......no more tree trouble.......




Chequerplate next........and perhaps move lights......gotta check regs first, then probably ignore them

New box and Trekker plates turned up.........



Doh.......turns out its not a Trekker box.........came out of one, its just someone in the past 40
yrs fitted a split case pre 60's type 2 in it.....
Guy claims he didnt realise......wish I'd seen a picture, then I would have!!!
Fairly sure I can still use the RGB's on a 'tunnel' box I got, just got to flip the diff, ratios wont be quite as good, but hey ho, live and learn!!!

At least the Spring Plates are Trekker ones.........

Hope you didn't pay too much then!

Hopefully the guy's gonna get another one soon, [correct this time].......and we're gonna sort something out....

But as we all know 'talk is cheap'......

.....on the plus side I can use the axles and reductions on a later gearbox....of which I have a spare. Trouble is its a lot more work than the straight swap I was planning........
Just gotta wait and see what matey comes up with.......

Bugger it's not the right box, but at least you can use the important bits, even if it is more hassle.

Probably will end up stripping it, then swapping it all over.....

Anyway day off today.....Hooray for the reccession........



Couple more local lanes ........This one was only a couple of hundred yrds....but boy, was it tight........proper wing scraper.......:shock:

This is after I've I done it.......
Check out the flattened stuff in the middle....
Picture below it was before.......


:shock:

Next was a nice easy one.....bit bumpy at the top.......

Me and the wife didn't laugh loud enough to wake the dogs when you hit that first puddle, honest
