Looking good, but how long will it stay that way. I'm sure you've got your eye on something to fill it up with.

Started on stripping the truck down this afternoon ready for the next few mods, and to fix a leak:
Inside of disc is covered in oil, as are the pads and trackrod. Mikes given me a clue to potential causes so ill strip it down and see if they bear fruit!

Thought i'd post a link of my latest little project of boredom in my spare time lol. Its a 100w led roof light thought id link it here as i know a few of ya don't really stray from the Essex lanes thread...
This was the prototype gonna make one more for the front and one for the back.... just looks weird with one on the front! even tho one was 10x brighter than my full beams and existing roof lights put together lol.

Stripped my leaky hub down today using the exploded diagrams, and laid it all out in order and tidily (very unlike me LOL)
and found the probable cause:
Brand new but been in there a while without use. New Adjustable Panard Rod arrived:
And Brian popped over to play:
So ordered new seals and will rebuild later in the week, along with some other goodies on order

So someones bought a ViN plate and decided to make their 1996 RR a 1971, must admit I didnt realise they made the RRC up to 1996, thought that would have been a P38....

battery wouldn't be a big as you think would have to be mounted on a belt but a lithium ion about the size of half a brick would last a good hour on full power....
