Took the bench seats out of the rear, old and tatty and not too keen to carry passengers on them with no seat belts etc.

Drove Tilly through Wookey Ford, experience now tells me a little fast, will change tacktics next time.
 
opened the sun roof on my 90 and stood with my head sticking of it out, admiring the view.... of my bonnet. ;);)
 
Put a screwdriver in it, and am about to take the USB out of the headunit to update my music, for once, no maintenance :D
 
Went for a drive to 'test' my new CV joint and breathers .. but found a few flooded fields and lanes so left them well alone ... this area is normally really dry 'cos the lane bit is well above the base field level .. should have gone over a week or so ago when it was high!!

;)

made and fitted just 2 brake pipes on front nearside caliper to flexi`s,
bled them through and tested me brakes to the local chippy `an back.

roe, saveloy & chips were nice!
 
Took the rear drum brake apart as one wheel was locking before the other three. Reassembled it now one on the front locks before the other. Noticed one rear tyre is more worn than the other due to the braking problem.
I will have to order some brake shoes once I have worked out if I have 10 or 11 inch drums
 
Attempted to try and fix my handbrake, one pin wont shift so i cant get the adjuster out, will try again tomorrow, MOT on friday :eek:

I took my truck through there this afternoon. I had a job on knowle lane.;):D:D:D
 
Put in new locks (Britpart though so will have to see how long they last :/) after someone ruined them trying to nick it the other day :mad: changed all the oils/filters and found the source of the annoying leak into the cab from the roof every time i move off after it's been raining.
Anyone got any ideas on how to fix up the massive gap between the seal and the glass in the sunroof (I'm sure that the glass isn't usually that curved..)? I'll get some pictures in the morning...
 
Front axel back in, hocky sticks bolted up, prop on. Also fitted both overhauled swivel housings, front springs and shocks. Mmmmm its looking nice and shiney under there, POR15 all the way.

Can't wait to get it back on the road:)
